There are several schools in my area (lower DCC) and throughout the county that have over 120% capacity. However, as far as I know, there is not halt to new development, unless the cluster as whole has elementary capacity over 120%.  I would suggest that the county looks at capacity in the catchment area for each individual elementary school to make these decisions, since families moving to new developments won't have a choice to attend other schools in the cluster.

I was wondering about specific schools. There are certainly elementary schools that are over 120% capacity. For example, Rachel Carson ES is at 144% of capacity, and Matsunaga ES is at 147% of capacity. However, as far as I know, there are no new residential plans awaiting approval that would affect either school.[/quote]

Woodlin ES is over 120% capacity and there is new development in the works near the Silver Spring metro. [/quote]

What new development? What stage is it at?[/quote]
