[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://dcps.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/dme/publication/attachments/Complete%20List%20of%20Schools%20DCPS%20&%20PCS_Data.pdf This link says Wilson was at 1713 students and 107% of capacity in 2012. Given these numbers, 100% capacity in 2012 was 1600.[/quote] Ok and data that is not 10 years shows different numbers. What point are you making?[/quote] DP: Someone explained it above. DCPS’s capacity has nothing to do with fire safety, nor is it an architect’s calculation. It is a DCPS-crested number referring to how many desks it thinks it can reasonably cram into the school, including trailers and closets, and DCPS increases this number over time despite no change to the building. The older, less ‘updated’ numbers more closely reflect what an architect or fire marshal would call capacity.[/quote]
