5. Operational considerations
All four remaining options provide for approximately 21 classroom sections per school. This is within the design enrollment of all schools, and most of our current elementary schools have operated at or above this number in the past. The resulting impact on operations largely considers that there are more students in classrooms, but there is less significant impact on school schedules, lunch, recess, and access to specials.
