Why are we here?

4

• New capacity is opening up in three parts of District 2.

1. We are proposing to open a new elementary school in Our Lady of Good Counsel, at 393 East 91st Street, in September 2012.

2. In Lower Manhattan, new school will begin incubating in September 2012 that will move into new construction at Peck Slip in September 2015.

3. The relocation of middle schools out of M003 and M011 has freed space for more elementary seats at P.S. 3 and P.S. 11.

• This new capacity can be leveraged through re-zoning in order to most effectively address growing demand and reduce or eliminate waitlists.

Methodology

5

Determining Target Kindergarten Zone Sizes:• Enrollment and applicant data, including

• Historical kindergarten cohort growth• Location of current and future housing projects

• Zoned retention rate of each school• How many students who live in the zone attend their zoned school?

• What is the capacity of each school?• Specifically, what is the number of possible sections of kindergarten in each

building, based on the number of full-size classrooms; appropriate number of cluster rooms; and historical enrollment increases and decreases at each grade level.

Upper East Side Rationale for Rezoning

10

• For September 2012, the DOE will propose a new school be opened in the Our Lady of Good Counsel building.

• P.S. 290 had a waitlist of 64 students for 2011-2012.

• P.S. 151 had enough zoned applicants for 2011-2012 to require 6 sections of kindergarten, which would not be sustainable long-term.

15

• In September 2012, the DOE will begin incubating a new school, which will eventually be placed in new construction at Peck Slip.

• P.S. 234 had a waitlist of 38 students, and P.S. 89, P.S. 276, and P.S. 397 all opened more K sections than can be sustained long-term.

• P.S. 41 also had a waitlist.

• Relocation of Clinton from M011 was intended to enable P.S. 11 to accommodate growing demand to its south.
