How did the
boundary development process balance physical capacity with the
needs of the student population?
The process used a model to calculate a
building's functional capacity based on the services—such as
bilingual and special education—needed to serve students
within its attendance area. In the case of option schools, the
model used historical data on service needs of students at each
option school to project services needed, and the impact on
functional capacity.
As a result, the proposed attendance area boundaries balance the
need to provide space for students and the services they are likely
to need.

How are capacity
needs going to be met prior to BEX IV projects, particularly with
regard to Jane Addams?
The plan is for Jane Addams to have 450 middle
school students as a “mushroom” model, like Salmon Bay
(the “mushroom” model means that there are more seats
for students entering 6th grade than rising from 5th
grade).
