We’ve heard what staff representatives have to say…

But what about everybody else?



"The place where kids learn should be a space where they feel at home. Students need to be comfortable in their own surroundings and have a sense of belonging. They need to have multiple opportunities to modalities in order to grow."

District Wide Survey



"A classroom should be welcoming, and full of opportunity. The typical desk arrangement should he a thing of the past... Students should sit at tables where they can collaborate. The classroom should have technology that is engaging and allows for students to grasp concepts through doing, not sitting and getting. Lectures should be INTERACTIVE with technology and hands on activities."

"Learning styles should dictate learning...because there is such a variety in our students, the 'physical' should represent this variety, keeping in mind that students learn differently today than we did...and there is nothing wrong with that fact. Modernizing these ideas only makes sense in trying to bridge the gap in their technology usage and overall learning."

Floor Plan




Utilization/ Capacity

What are the variables in Capacity?

Maximum enrollment =number of students per sectionArea per student = amount of space each student has in classPeriods per dayDemand = percentage of enrollment taking a courseClass room sizeScheduling Efficiency# of Teachers



What does it mean?

Effective Capacity considers classroom flexibility

Calculated Capacity determines the maximum enrollment

(educational adequacy)



Calculated Capacity is determined by: • Fixing the maximum class size per section• Utilize percentage of students taking each course (demand)

• Calculating number of sections required• # of sections divided by classrooms available• Modulating enrollment to balance existing classrooms to classrooms required

Classrooms required determined by formula

Does not address the size of the classroom/how class is taught



Effective Capacity is determined by: • Fixing the area per student• Utilize percentage of students taking each course (demand)• Calculate number of sections required• Compare enrollment to existing class room size

Classrooms required determined by effective use of the room
