SCHOOL CONCURRENCY TRACKING
June 2008 Annual Summit
ONCE UPON A TIME-
• There were families
And they wanted their children to get an education
And a school was built
REWIND TO JUST A FEW YEARS AGO
It was decided that schools should be built at the same time housing was being built
Just like the roads to get to the homes
Just like the lines to bring drinking water
Just like the power to light the lamps
And school concurrency was born
We started with a simple table to show what school a new development would be assigned to.
ZONED SCHOOL CURRENT ENROLLMENT
CURRENT DOE CAPACITY
X Elementary 400 450
Y Middle 800 850
Z Senior 1500 1550
However, Concurrency required looking at more than just current data so the table was expanded.
ZONED SCHOOL

PROJECTED FUTUREENROLLMENT
PLANNED FACILITYENHANCE-MENTS
PROJECTED DOE CAPACITY
X Elementary 400 450
Y Middle 800 850
Z Senior 1500 1550
School Concurrency also allows for reserving student stations based on upcoming housing developments
• A simple excel file was created to track the many items involved in a review of a proposed housing development, including the data from the previous table • Type of housing• Number of students generated• Number of seats calculated to be available• Adjacent school zones
• Other forms and processes are still in the development stage, including transitioning away from the excel file to a more accessible database.

CONCLUSION- CHANGE WILL OCCUR
Certain tables in the system will be updated periodically
• Enrollment file -twice per year • 1) 60th day for current enrollment,• 2) April for next year ‘s projections
• Reserved seats removed- once per year• New schools and enhancements – once per year in
October as the 5 year plan is updated and adopted
Our web site and the interaction with the web site will also be changing as our technology moves forward
AND WE ALL LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER
THE END
