Capacity Data <br /> There were no changes to school capacities this year. <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 limits capacity <br /> analysis to `bricks and mortar' structures instead of temporary facilities, and also requires <br /> its own set of future student projections to identify long-term capital school construction <br /> needs. However, the County did phase in DPI's smaller class size mandates in previous <br /> years, which decreased capacity. Decisions would have to be made if new changes at <br /> the State level affecting class size should, or should not, be reflected in the County's <br /> SAPFO. <br /> 6.
