The majority of the minor <br />changes at OCS involved a Middle School decrease in student count of 4 (2006) and 1 <br />(2005). In OCS at the High School level, the changes are an increase of 4 (2006) and a <br />decrease of 3 (2005). This was due to the use if different sources which have now been <br />corrected to the certified enrollment. Footnotes have also been corrected and clarified. <br />Projections are unaffected by the changes since they were not based on the incorrect <br />number. Additionally, OCS' capacity at the Elementary level was increased by 2 students <br />to 3,922 in response to the capacity re-calculations OCS performed in April and which <br />was on the May 15 BOCC agenda as an Information Item. The OCS will be asked to <br />submit revised numbers at the elementary level so that the new numbers may be <br />certified and the revisions incorporated into the SAPFO TAC report for the current year. <br />At the December 12, 2006 Board of County Commissioners' meeting, the Board approved the <br />November 15, 2006 actual membership and previously adopted capacity numbers for both <br />Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. <br />Additional approvals/certifications, as outlined in the table below, are required by the SAPFO <br />partners MOUs (Memorandum of Understanding). <br />
