2023/24 Boundary Proposal C-8

2023/24 Community Boundary Proposal 8, 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.

Overview
Proposal Number C-8
Submitted By Dino Petrovic
Date Submitted October 10, 2022
Schools Involved Marjory Stoneman Douglas High, Coral Glades High, Coral Springs High
Description Phase-in the portion of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High boundary south of the Sawgrass Expressway, west of Coral Ridge Drive, and north of Wiles Road (TAZ 56) to Coral Glades High. Younger siblings of current Marjory Stoneman Douglas High will be permitted to attend through reassignment. Also, transfer the portion of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High boundary at the southwest corner of the intersection of West Sample Road and University Drive, bounded on the west by Northwest 94th Avenue, and on the south by Northwest 32nd Street, to Coral Springs High (in TAZ 653). This area is currently non-residential but is the site for a planned 712-unit multifamily housing development.

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 362 students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High to Coral Glades High, which will have sufficient space if future reassignment awards are reduced. Enrollment impact on Coral Springs High from the transfer of the area in TAZ 653 cannot be estimated at this time. 
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 elementary to high school feeder pattern: Eagle Ridge Elementary currently feeds 100% to Coral Springs Middle and then to Marjory Stoneman Douglas High; proposal would feed to both Marjory Stoneman Douglas High and Coral Glades High. Also, moving the area at the southwest corner of West Sample Road and University Drive to Coral Springs High further splits the middle to high school feeder pattern (though no students currently reside here): Coral Springs Middle currently feeds to both Coral Glades High and Marjory Stoneman Douglas High; proposal would  add Coral Springs High as a third school in the feeder pattern.
School Proximity Impact

Students in TAZ 56 would travel further to get to Coral Glades High School; some  205 students in TAZ 56 live within the two-mile walk boundary of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High and will need bus transportation. The proposed housing development in area "B" (no students currently live in this area) is within the two-mile walk boundary of Coral Springs High.

REVISED 11/2/2022
Neighborhood Integrity Impact Does not split neighborhoods.
Natural Barrier Impact No concerns.
