PROBLEM STATEMENT
• 1,103 Students Enrolled at Githens in 2019
• Enrollment is 10 Classrooms over Built Capacity
• Githens Instructional Capacity
• 36 Classrooms x 25 Students / Room = 900 Students
• Githens Core Facility Capacity (e.g. Dining Space)
• 4,068 SF / 14 SF per STU x 3 Lunches = 872 Students
• With limited core capacity, no room to add additional classrooms (instructional capacity)

PLANNING PROCESS: UNDERSTANDING
• What is Planning?
> Planning is a Data-Driven Problem Solving Process
> When Student Demographic trends exceed the Capacity of
a Campus, Planning is used to Identify Solutions
• Overcrowding at Githens
> 250+ Students beyond Capacity
> Necessitates a Deeper Conversation

We must take care not to oversimplify an
increasingly complex and dynamic reality.
This is a common mistake, resulting in a
great deal of bad conventional wisdom.

Steps to Implementation / Impacts
• Reduces Githens Enrollment Increases Brogden Enrollment
> 2020-21: 1103 to 1003 > 2020-21: 578 to 678
> 2021-22: 1000 to 897 > 2021-22: 691 to 794
• Projected to Increase Transportation Efficiency and Ride Times
> 60 Students (Lakewood): 0.2 Miles x 60 x 4 Trips / Day x 180 Days =
8,640 Student Miles | 346 Hours
> 40 Students (Spaulding): 1.6 Miles x 40 x 4 Trips / Day x 180 Days =
46,080 Student Miles | 1,843 Hours
> Totals: 54,720 Student Miles and 2,189 Hours per Year
