[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure about the thinking on the timing of new AAP centers, other than that they don't want to open new AAP centers at MS that are scheduled for renovation until after the renovations are completed.  It may be that they think it makes sense to monitor the enrollment trends for a longer period at the other middle schools before making a decision. [/quote]

I agree.

I think Facilities pretty much states their longer range projections were way off for elementary schools and it would be better to watch how things change over a couple of years before making longer range plans for elementary schools, and instead focus on middle/high schools.

[quote]While the causes of the variance between the elementary and high school enrollment projections are not known at this time, it is obvious that long-range projections will need to be modified as a result of the shifting dynamic currently underway. The majority of the capital funding is slated toward providing capacity relief at the elementary level. If the current trend were to continue for another year or two then the priorities within the CIP would need to shift toward the middle and high schools.[/quote]

Facilities also shows how their projections for Centers were over-stated division-wide. (chart on page 2 of the Summary document, Attachment A)[/quote]
