[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn’t Campbell usually not have a waiting list? All of the schools the staff identified as their top five have building capacities (nevermind relocatables) at least a hundred seats larger than the current Campbell program so I don’t see how they can relocate it to another site without wasting seats that we really need.[/quote]

It didn't used to, but it has for the past four or five years or so now. I think it's gotten larger, but not by a couple hundred. Which is why I have no idea why Staff, who'd previously said that it could/should grow to around 600 are now saying that every option school has to be in a location that could accommodate up to 750. And I would be very surprised to learn that this was based on application data.[/quote]

I think this is because they've previously said the new standard for building an ES is to accommodate 725-750.  That being the case, if neighborhood schools have to be that big then choice schools should be that big too.[/quote]
