In determining the need for additional space, the District Facility Renewal and Preservation Committee examined the impact of different class size guidelines and full-day kindergarten.

The three class size options examined by the committee were:

• the current guideline --
grades K-1 = 24 students
grades 2-3 = 26
grades 4-5 = 28

• the recommended guideline from the Elementary Class Size Committee --
grades K-1 = 19 students
grades 2-3 = 21
grades 4-5 = 23

• a mid-point guideline --
grades k-1 = 21 students
grades 2-3 = 24
grades 4-5 = 26
