Live reporting for the SchCom Space Needs subcommittee meeting underway #snsc0510

Spreadsheet put together on building projects some of which were included in prior demographics analysis, some recent one adds, #snsc0509 home sales last yr tracked to projection of 275/yr per demographics study

special programs space needs, a win for lower cost in approach, cost in house less than out serviced cost, additional principal support required due to these programs in overall approach with building needs #snsc0509 growth in programs relatively minor but also keeps kids 'home'

Special Ed program is known as a good one so some move in counts are unpredictable #snsc0509 EDC is at capacity, can't add another classroom there. Difference betw motor room and sensory rooms, service vs space required (diff schools call them differently)

Special rooms naming conventions around the bathrooms, toilets, etc. Some rooms with those can't be swapped out for other normal rooms when you get to that level of details of fit. #snsc0509

More space used post pandemic than pre, more counseling, more work group, than pre. Something to consider
Middle schs seeing greater decrease in population, some space rented out to BICO (add an asterisk to chart) #snsc0509

Discussion about space at complexes not always to be considered at 50/50, there have been shifts,maybe more before whatever decision on structure and district alignment is set #snsc0509

Use of maps layers on GIS website on ToF page, use of layers for school districts, elem vs middle, etc. Map raises questions but you also need to consider the roads and normal travel #snsc0509 next meeting, may 19 to be rescheduled, update to SchCom coming on progress

Discussion on use of consulting for additional steps in working through the data and outlines, #snsc0509 Jun 6, and Jun 14 meeting holds for now, include Facilities M D'Angelo for some of that
Meeting adjourns, full school committee coming up at 7
