I have the District's population forecast that shows the estimated
number of students by school by four age groups out to 2015. If you will send me an address, I will mail a copy of that report to you.

sorry for the omission 5034529556
do you have any data on what the school district would look like
under a strict PreK-8 model and have you done any research or have
you been directed to do any research to determine the economic
comparisons between the present three tier model and PreK-8
neighborhood model
do you have any info as to where the population of students are
distributed in relation to facilities not only enrolled but
demographically based on age of the general population.

where did you get the money to do the 7-12 study

you have the schools but you can't extrapolate out what a PreK-8
model would look like but you can for a three tier system do i have
that right

so does this mean that you have never considered the k-8 model before closing any schools and you have no data concerning the make up of neighborhood schools based on
addresses

Dear Mr. Sherbourne:

You left a message on my voice mail requesting the following
information: (You did not leave a phone number where you can be
reached.)

"What would the school district look like as a K-8 district centered upon the High School with the sub information as to the history of the way the population would look like before the middle schools if we still had all our schools in place based upon the population address
in relationship to the neighborhood schools be they open or not."

The District does not have research studies available that model an
alternative organization of its educational programs and addressing the
possible geographic distribution of programs between approximately 100
buildings at this time and for time periods more than two decades ago
including schools open, sold, or closed in the intervening decades.

The cost to hire staff to prepare such a model if possible could easily
exceed $100,000 in cost and would only address part of your information
request.

Regrettably, I am unable to provide you with the model or studies of
alternative educational delivery systems that you have requested.

Please note there is a wealth of information on individual schools
available on PPS web site.

Sincerely,

Dear Dale:

I want to acknowledge the fact that you have attended several Board
meetings where you have been advocating for K-8.

For me, making a case for K-8 is not about asking staff the questions
that you are posing below about property and capacity and earthquake
ratings. K-8 is not about buildings (while that would enter the
discourse once a decision might be made to have a K-8 school). K-8 is
about a philosophy of education. I believe that neither the Board nor
the Superintendent are in a position to switch to K-8 district-wide
right now.

If you are looking for K-8 as an option, then you could access these
across the District at some of our schools.

Thank you for taking the time to sit through the meetings. You stated at
the end of your testimony at the Board meeting on Monday that while we
were engaging the staff, we were not engaging you, as a member of the
public. It has been Board procedure to listen to testimonies. So, please
know that we do not single you out.

I get hundreds of emails. While I read them all, I am not in a position
to respond to all of them.

Thanks, once again.

please supply the following info
what the school population would look like for each school property
that can take students,closed and/or open in a k-8 model as to their
attending their closest school according to their addressess
and also if you would please send the info on the earthquake ratings
for each school, opened or closed, and any info on the emergncy
preparedness of the schools and the school district and any plans that

are held in common with local state or federal agencies for emergncy
preparedness and what part the schools will play in those scenarios

Dear Dale

The Superintendent has asked me to respond to your request for
information.

Unfortunately, I am not clear as to exactly what information you are
looking for based on the e-mails, I've seen.

Please call me at 916-3256, and I think we can quickly figure out
what
data you need and get it to you as soon as possible.
