page 49 shows RMHS current utilization rate at 94.8%. If that's true, why are there so man portables there? Still don't understand how MCPS is getting enrollment figures.[/quote]

You have to watch last Thursday's joint meeting with the Planning Board to understand (if you can follow) the differences among:

Student generation rates -- Planning's bailiwick, mostly modeled from MCPS data of existing enrolled student populations correlated with neighborhood/domicile characteristics

Past/present enrollment -- MCPS's bailiwick; the students actually attending a school, including consortia/magnet/COSA/other special transfers from outside of a school's home attendance area (but not those from that home area attending elsewhere via such transfers)

Projections -- MCPS's bailiwick, again, though using Planning's generation rates combined with existing housing/final-approved developments (not zoning potential), and slightly different for different purposes; in the case of the boundary studies, they wanted to project local/in-catchment-only student populations, and initially assumed relatively little net difference among the outbound/inbound magnet populations -- something they clearly are starting to walk back a bit[/quote]
