Capacity Data <br /> There were no changes to school capacities this year for Orange County Schools and <br /> Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. <br /> 5. Capacity Information <br /> SAPFO vs. DPI <br /> The SAPFO is a local ordinance, independent of State Department of Public Instruction <br /> (DPI) projections and rules regarding class size. The SAPFO, for instance, does not <br /> count temporary modular classrooms as fulfilling the capacity level of service outlined in <br /> the SAPFO interlocal Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The MOU requires `bricks <br /> and mortar' instead of temporary facilities and also requires its own set of future student <br /> projections to identify long-term capital school construction needs. However, the County <br /> did phase in the smaller class size in previous years that decreased capacity. Decisions <br /> will have to be made if new discussions at the state level create any class size changes <br /> that should or should not be reflected in the County's SAPFO. <br /> This year, CHCCS and OCS did not exceed the adopted levels of service established in <br /> the SAPFO at this time nor do projections show a potential need at the elementary, <br /> middle, and high school levels within the 10-year planning period. <br /> 6.
