[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Deal is over capacity by what 15-20%? Aren't Janney, Lafayette and Murch over capacity by about the same amount? Why no outcry to address that issue? Redistrict those schools? [/quote]

Janney may be. Murch isn't and Lafayette isn't.[/quote]

From page 11:

Murch 86% in bounds / 14% OOB (620 students / 488 building capacity) 
Janney 94% in bounds / 6% OOB (693 students / 570 building capacity) 
Lafayette 87% in bounds / 13% OOB (697 students / 516 building capacity)

Doesn't look like Deal is any more overcrowded than Janney and Janney is the best in the city right? [/quote]

Murch and Lafayette are both being rebuilt. Lafayette's building will hold up to 700. Not sure about Murch but I suspect the same.[/quote]

Even if you only take Janney, they are 21% over capacity. Why is it ok for Janney but not Deal to be over capacity? While we're talking about Deal, we should address Janney at the same time right?[/quote]

The crowding at Deal isn't that bad, and not worse than Janney. Everyone IB is willing to put up with it. I doubt that the most zealous posters in these threads are IB for Janney. One PP upthread said she's IB for CHEC.  That's a stronger set of motivations than reducing minor crowding.
