The majority of Chapel Hill/Carrboro <br /> Schools and Orange County Schools projected average annual growth rates have all <br /> decreased since the previous year, except the elementary school levels in both <br /> districts which show an increase. The majority of projected annual growth rates show <br /> growth for the three levels in the 10-year projection period. However, the Chapel <br /> Hill/Carrboro City Schools' middle school level shows a negative growth rate in the <br /> 10-year projection period. Attachment II.C.3 and Attachment ILC.4 show year-by- <br /> year percent growth and projected level of service (LOS).
