[quote=Anonymous]More data. Looking again at the 2016-17 transfer report, you can get the number of non-ED neighborhood students enrolled at each school - that's the non-ED students who lived in the elementary school zones and attended the their neighborhood school. The total for the Wakefield feeder elementaries was 1919 non-ED neighborhood students, which works out to about 320 per grade. If all of those kids were to continue through neighborhood schools to high school at Wakefield, that would mean about 1280 non-ED neighborhood students at Wakefield at a given time who didn't transfer out of their neighborhood elementary schools.

In 2016-17, Wakefield had 925 non-ED neighborhood students. If we assume that number will grow by the same 20% the APS staff predicted for all of Wakefield by the time those elementary students are in high school, that would project 1110 non-ED neighborhood students at Wakefield, which is less than the 1280 students calculated above. So even if all of the UMCs who transferred out in elementary continue to transfer out in high school, there is no trouble accounting for where the future non-ED students at Wakefield will come from. They will come from the same pool of non-ED students who stuck with their neighborhood schools all along.[/quote]
