9. DELIBERATED ITEMS/DISTRICT LEADERSHIP TEAM REPORTS
Subject:
9.1. Enrollment Study Update – Board of Education Recommended Option
Rationale:

In November of 2017, a Comprehensive School Enrollment Analysis and Projections was prepared to inform the Feasibility Study conducted by Drummey Rosanne Architects. An updated Enrollment Study by grade current to October 1, 2019, will be presented to the BOE.  An updated analysis of births and current economic and housing conditions, as well as enrollment trends, are addressed in this study. The cohort-survival method with some modifications was used to update the enrollment projections.

MMI generated districtwide and school-facility-specific enrollment projections disaggregated by grade. These projections forecast the overall student population for a 10-year planning horizon.

Projections include low-, medium-, and high-growth scenarios. The updated Comprehensive School Enrollment Study and Projections illustrate the geographic distribution of enrollment patterns, new births, migration patterns, and residential development impacts on enrollment and changes in the City of Bristol's demographics.
