Comments

Enrollment in the schools listed (Cameron Elementary, Twain Middle, Edison High) is currently projected to be near or above capacity.

The 17 students generated by this proposal would require .68 additional classrooms (17 divided by 25 students per classroom). Providing these additional classrooms will cost approximately $ 238,000 based upon a per classroom construction cost of $350,000 per classroom.

The foregoing information does not take into account the potential impacts of other proposals pending that could affect the same schools.
