MASTER PLANNING – CONCLUSIONS REACHED master planning 1. ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS – As a whole, are at capacity, however renovation to “Middle School” type spaces within General Wayne ES would allow for increased capacity 2. MIDDLE SCHOOL – Is currently over capacity. If the building is utilized as originally planned then it greatly exceeds capacity 3. HIGH SCHOOL – Has additional capacity within GREAT VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT 5
MASTER PLANNING - TWO OPTIONS master planning 1. Delay activating the master planning, provide short-term solutions and “weather the storm”. Possible short-term solutions presented as part of this presentation. 2. Begin the planning process in order to be underway to manage the student capacity issues. GREAT VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT 6

Markley Elementary Schools • Sugartown, and to a lesser extent K.D. Markley, will be over capacity in 5 years based on the projected enrollments 10
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SOLUTIONS IN 5 YEARS No District Changes master planning Operating as the buildings currently do, solutions to address capacity may include: Renovations/Additions General Wayne: Convert “Middle School-type” spaces to additional instructional space Redistrict K-5 to re-apportion populations Modular classrooms in lieu of renovations to GWES or in lieu of re-districting GREAT VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT 11

MIDDLE SCHOOL SOLUTIONS IN 5 YEARS No District Changes master planning Operating as the building currently does, solutions to address capacity may include: Additions Add 22 general instruction classrooms (22 x 28 students/classroom = 616 seats; functional capacity 876 + 616 = 1492 x 85% occupancy = 1268 capacity to accommodate projected enrollments in 5 years) Plus add classroom space for learning support or specials rooms Plus expand kitchen/cafeteria for increased population Modular classrooms in lieu of additions Same notes as above Move 8 th grade into the High School (Grades 8-12) Although the number of 8 th grade general instruction classrooms and learning support classrooms can be accommodated in the high school, the high school department structure would integrate 8 th grade throughout the school, or modifications to the high school would be required to accommodate the 8 th grade teams including Science. Specials, kitchen/cafeteria and athletics would need to be addressed to accommodate the increased population. Note: teachers would likely not have their own classrooms. The function would need to be modified to act as a “community college” setting where every space is programmed the majority of the day. GREAT VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT 13
