<br /> Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools September 1994
<br /> Commissioners will discuss new school on September 20
<br /> Elementary school planning process began three years ago
<br /> The Orange County Board of Commissioners will discuss the proposed new elementary
<br /> school again on Tuesday, September 20 in a meeting at OWASA which begins at 7:30 pm. The
<br /> commissioners began discussions of the new school's funding on September 6 and are ex-
<br /> pected to determine the funding level of the new school so that construction can proceed.
<br /> Plans call for the school to open in 1996. The last elementary school that was built in the dis-
<br /> trict, Ephesus Elementary, was constructed in 1972 or 22 years ago.
<br /> Questions and answers about the proposed new elementary school
<br /> When was a new elementary school first proposed by the Board of Education?
<br /> In 1990 the Long-Range Facility Planning Committee recommended to the Board of Education
<br /> that the district begin planning immediately for the construction of a new elementary, middle, and high
<br /> school, with a second elementary school recommended prior to the end of the decade. The middle
<br /> and high schools were included in the 1992 bond referendum, but the Commissioners eliminated the
<br /> elementary school to keep costs down.
<br /> Why is another elementary school needed?
<br /> The capacity of the district's present six elementary schools is 3150, excluding mobile class-
<br /> rooms. Enrollment in the elementary schools stands at 3662 today. It is projected to increase to
<br /> 3931 by 1996-97. There are 19 mobile classrooms on our elementary campuses at this time.
<br /> Where will the school be built?
<br /> The school will be built on the same campus as McDougle Middle School. McDougle is lo-
<br /> cated near the intersection of Old Fayetteville Road and Hillsborough Road in Carrboro. In fact, the
<br /> elementary school will be attached to McDougle Middle and will share a media center, cafeteria and
<br /> kitchen, and mechanical equipment.
<br /> Which students will attend the school?
<br /> A redistricting committee is being formed this fall to redraw attendance boundaries; therefore,
<br /> we cannot say with certainty right now who will attend.
<br /> How many students will the school hold?
<br /> The school is designed for approximately 600 students in grades K-5, 18 pre-schoolers, and
<br /> 22 exceptional education students (640 total). (continued on reverse)
