Orange County Public Schools Advantages to a Smaller School Environment MetroWest Elementary 84-E-W-4 Smaller School Advantages
Orange County Public Schools Scheduling • With an enrollment of more than 1600, students eat as early at 10:30 and as late as 1:45. With a smaller school of approximately 750 students, the lunch block can be decreased by at least two hours, similar to Keene’s Crossing Elementary and Independence Elementary • Less lunch shifts allows paraprofessionals more time in classrooms rather than monitoring lunch • Computer-based testing will take half the number of days we currently need • The potential to have staggered start times and entrances on separate streets will decrease the amount of traffic Smaller School Advantages
Orange County Public Schools Additional Personnel/Space • 2 registrars to ensure students start the first day of school • 2 guidance counselors • 2 media specialists • 2 nurses (we currently have between 800-900 visits to the clinic each month) • At least 2 additional paraprofessionals for ESOL (Spanish and Portuguese) • Each campus will have their own media center and cafeteria Smaller School Advantages
Orange County Public Schools Smaller Grade Levels • School-wide events such as Open House could be scheduled for one night rather than two • A smaller grade level would allow us to hold family events such as Honor Roll or Chorus concerts on campus, rather than off-site at Olympia HS • Students would be more likely to be in the same class with students from previous years • Having two schools allows us to recognize the accomplishments of more students (SOAR award, Disney Dreamer and Doer, spelling bee) Smaller School Advantages
Orange County Public Schools Research supports a smaller school environment • The effects poverty has on student achievement is reduced • Parent involvement is increased • Discipline issues are reduced • Fewer students are retained • Teacher job satisfaction is increased • Teachers build stronger relationships with students Information from Education World 2000. Are Smaller Schools Better Schools? Smaller School Advantages
