This compares what the district would look like under each of three scenarios. K–5: 360 students K–8 and middle school: 500 students High school: 1,100 students No schools close and no boundaries change. Enrollment keeps declining, so more schools fall below the size needed to staff a full program. About 48% of students will attend a sustainable school. S C E N A R I O A A smaller set of the same moves brings more than half of schools up to a sustainable size. About 73% of students will attend a sustainable school. S C E N A R I O B Closures, program moves, and boundary changes bring about two thirds of schools up to a sustainable size. About 80% of students will attend a sustainable school.
