[quote=Anonymous]Wheaton High School in Wheaton, MD has a build capacity for a maximum enrollment of 2,340 students. As of the 2022–2023 school year, the official enrollment was 2,599 students, which exceeds the school's intended capacity. According to a testimony presented to the Montgomery County Board of Education, the school is experiencing a "severe lack of space" because its current enrollment is about 260 students over its designed capacity of 2,340. The Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) official school profile confirms the enrollment numbers and notes the ongoing issue of overcapacity. The capacity figure of 2,340 is based on the school's most recent construction and planning documents, with the expectation that this limit would not be reached until 2030. However, rapid population growth in the area led to the capacity being exceeded much sooner. [/quote]
