2023/24 Boundary Proposal C-11

2023/24 Community Boundary Proposal 11, Analysis and Community Input

Disclaimer: The following school boundary proposals have been submitted by community members for the 2023/24 school year. These proposals were not created by District staff and they solely reflect the ideas and opinions of the community members who proposed them. Although these community members have worked with District staff to gather data and ensure that the posted proposals meet the mandated criteria of Class Size and School Concurrency Level of Service, these proposals may or may not meet additional considerations for establishing school boundaries, align with School Board Policy 5000, or be in the best interest of the communities, students and schools impacted. All proposals, inclusive of community comments, will be presented to and discussed by the School Board for consideration.

Considerations Reviewed
Class Size Impact No adverse impact.
Level of Service Impact Is projected to enable  Marjory Stoneman Douglas High to meet the LOS target by the end of the phase-in.
Enrollment Impact No adverse impact: moves 304 students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High to Coral Springs High, which currently has sufficient space to accommodate additional enrollment.
Diversity Impact

Does not change the overall percentage of population of any demographic subgroup beyond +/-5% within the total school population of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High or Coral Glades High.

(See diversity data below.)
Feeder Pattern Impact Splits the middle to high feeder pattern: Westglades Middle currently feeds 100%  to Marjory Stoneman Douglas High; proposal would feed to both Marjory Stoneman Douglas High and Coral Springs High.
School Proximity Impact

Reduces travel distance for some students in the impacted area, though others will travel further to Coral Springs High, depending on residence location. No students in the impacted area are within the two-mile walk boundary of either high school.

CONSIDERATION RE-WRITTEN 10/25/2022
Neighborhood Integrity Impact Does not split any neighborhoods.
Natural Barrier Impact No concerns.
