District Enrollment Growth

- 11 -

Increase of 8,400 students, or 2.8% per year

Of metro districts, only Douglas county has added more students since 2006 than Denver.

Recent Growth

� Between 2006 and 2011 Colorado enrollment grew by 8%. During the same period DPS has grown 12%

� Over the past 5 years, DPS has increased enrollment 8,400 students, or 2.8% per year

� 2011 alone saw an increase of 2,000 students versus 2010, a 2.5% increase

� 2003 and 2008 Bonds had limited need for large investments in new capacity due to stagnant enrollment.

Drivers of Recent Growth

� Three primary factors have driven the increase in DPS enrollment:

� Continued, modest, demographic growth in all areas of the city

� Strong residential development in Stapleton and Green Valley Ranch

� Increasing capture rate of students due to improved school offerings, particularly midde and high school

Page 12: 2012 Bond & Mill Levy Planning: Community Planning and ...€¦ · CPAC Mission and Stakeholder Responsibilities - 4 - Mission Serve as an advisory committee to the district as to

Forecast: Enrollment will increase an additional ~5,400 students by 2016

- 12 -

Forecasted growth rates are well below what they were over past 5 years, but still represent a 1.2% per annum growth.

Over 50% of the growth is expected to come in middle and high school, given low capture rates and improving options.

� Total of $1.9 billion of identified needs (excludes new capacity needs)� Evaluations performed over a 20-year timeframe� 5-yr plan prioritized near-term needs into high, medium, and low categories

(over $600 million).

Values as of February 14, 2012

DPS evaluated deficiencies with a 20-year outlook. Prioritization for inclusion in the 2012 bond was determined by looking at the facility needs that need to be addressed over the next 5 years.

Source: 2011-12 CDE Funding Summary

Reductions impact of over $76M in current budget year.

Page 16: 2012 Bond & Mill Levy Planning: Community Planning and ...€¦ · CPAC Mission and Stakeholder Responsibilities - 4 - Mission Serve as an advisory committee to the district as to

Per pupil funding from the 1988, 1998, and 2003 MLO have declined in

purchasing power, equivalent to over $300 per student

� The 1988, 1998, and 2003 MLO are constant revenue sources

� Both inflation and increases in student enrollment have eroded the purchasing power associated with each MLO

� In total, purchasing power has eroded 39% from the respective per pupil levels in the years of approval

� State and local reductions have resulted in a combined reduction of greater than $1,100/student and greater than $24M

for district.

CPAC Recommendation to the Board of Education

� The CPAC recommends that the Board of Education place two initiatives on the November 2012 ballot for

voter consideration.

� The CPAC believes the package will positively impact student achievement, has broad voter appeal,

provides specificity on the areas of investment, while allowing some flexibility at the individual school and

district level as things change in the future, and achieves the following:

– Delivers essential programs and supports to advance achievement for students throughout the district. (i.e.. music,

art, physical education, enrichment, academic support, technology, curricular materials, kindergarten and preschool)

– Infuses 21st century technology throughout the district, impacting student learning, enhancing student and parent

access

– Addresses critical facility needs across schools and regions throughout the city

– Adds school capacity where most needed, to address overcrowding and enrollment growth.

� The CPAC encourages the Board and DPS staff to develop a formal oversight committee charged

with establishing accountability measures and a monitoring plan for expenditures of the bond and

mill levy override funds, and encourages community voice in that process.
