The Process
![Page 9: Lindbergh Parent Boundary Committee presentation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020418/568bd7891a28ab2034a011a0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
GUIDING PRINCIPLES1. Middle schools need nearly equal
numbers of students
2. Elementary schools should have (within a narrow range) nearly equal percentage enrollment capacity
![Page 10: Lindbergh Parent Boundary Committee presentation](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020418/568bd7891a28ab2034a011a0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
COMMITTEE CRITERIA• Use residential (within the boundary lines) enrollment to
determine each school’s base enrollment. – (Curriculum and Instruction Department will establish placement for
special programs such as PEGS, VICC, ELL, Open Enrollment, Staff Children).
• To the extent possible, try to keep neighborhoods together. A subdivison was generally considered to be a neighborhood.
• Try not to create “pocket boundaries” that have attendance islands not connected to a school’s base enrollment area.
• To the extent possible, use major streets as boundary lines (I-270, Lindbergh, Gravois, etc).
• Be as economical as possible.
• Try to establish boundaries that will last a number of years and accommodate future population trends.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
• To the extent possible, minimize disruption for families already in elementary attendance areas outside of Truman.
• To the extent possible, send students to the closest school.

BOUNDARY OBSTACLES & CONSTRAINTS
• Must complete elementary boundaries in order to know data needed to set middle school boundaries.
• Crestwood Elementary has greatest additional capacity for students, so process must begin there.
• Density of students (number of students per square mile) varies dramatically across Lindbergh’s 28 square miles. East side (Kennerly, Concord, Sappington) has many more students than north (Crestwood/Long) and Fenton.
• When sending students to two middle schools from five elementary schools, one elementary must split.
• Transportation is more efficient when all students living south of I-270 are together as one area (approximately 290 in all).
• It is not possible to provide a neighborhood school for Fenton students.
• Elementary schools have some variance in capacity (Kennerly – 440; Crestwood, Long, and Concord – 500; Sappington - 540).

RESULTS• Middle School and Elementary Guiding Principles met
– Middle School enrollments: 605 & 603
– Elementary capacities range from 90.2-98.4 percent full. Out of Resident (OOR) and staff children will close this range.
• Crestwood and Long saw largest increase in territory based on lowest number of students per square mile.
• Sappington met capacity by adding small area to South.
• Kennerly was already over capacity and will maintain its numbers by limiting OOR and staff.
• Concord is filled to highest capacity at 98%.
• Middle school split – Truman: Crestwood, Long, Concord (students living south of I-270)
– Sperreng: Sappington, Kennerly, Concord (students living north of I-270)

FINAL GUIDING PRINCIPLEAnother basic tenet becomes apparent as the final pieces are put together: There will be varying degrees of agreement and disagreement on an individual family basis.
I believe these decisions need to be made based on fiscal responsibility, and doing what best serves the greatest number of students.
