Declining enrollment has resulted in excess capacity

Plan must also address overcrowding in Cleveland's west region

• Includes Garfield, a committed new facility that was not operational in 2008-09 2. Includes Euclid Park, a committed new facility that was not operational in 2008-09 3. Includes Thomas

Jefferson, a committed new facility that was not operational in 2008-09 4. Includes Willson, a committed new facility that was not operational in 2008-09 Note: Academic neighborhood boundaries are not fixed and represent an approximation based on Cleveland residential zones. Utilization equals total enrollment (for 2008-09) divided by estimated school capacity. Capacity is estimated as 25 students per classroom adjusted for 10 students per classroom for current special ed student enrollment. Where schools have been built within the Master Plan, OSFC capacities have been used to increase accuracy Source: CMSD data
