42 Figure 3.9 There is capacity for approximately 7,300 students in charter schools (based on charter self-reported capacities and available slots). A challenge is to find more strategic ways to distribute capacity geographically and between DCPS and charters so that capacity aligns with demand, while also preparing for future increases in enrollment. UTILIZATION Enrollment v. Capacity with Utilization Average Although average utilization for both DCPS and charters shows a reasonable match between capacity and enrollment District-wide, at 75 percent and 85 percent respectively, utilization on a school-by-school basis varies widely. This data suggests that there are more than enough seats in total, but they are not in the right places or do not align with current demand. For example, some neighborhood clusters are well over capacity – as much 137 percent utilized, while others are as low as 35 percent utilized. Among the most common school types (elementary schools, middle schools, K-8 education campuses, and high schools), middle school utilization is the lowest at 52 percent for DCPS and 86 percent for charter schools. The highest DCPS utilization among the most common school types is elementary schools at 81 percent and the highest charter school utilization is high schools at 94 percent.
OPPORTUNITIES Meetings with the working group examined the possibility of a framework developed for the strategic matching of charter schools with available DCPS space around the city, where charter school education programming and grade configuration complement a DCPS need. Discussions with community members and the working group also focused on encouraging more mixed-use facility planning, development, and operation to take advantage of community and education-related building uses outside of DCPS and charter schools. Creative short-term leases for partner agencies, community organizations, or even small businesses would absorb excess building area while activating the facility outside of traditional school hours. This approach to facilities could enrich DCPS or charter school programming, offset facility costs and help absorb excess capacity now, without relinquishing capacity permanently, so that capacity is available when enrollment increases. Some community members and even students requested a focus on job training and skill development. Organizations that lease space could be required to consider internships and mentoring opportunities for public education students. These types of partnerships could create jobs and economic opportunity in local communities. When enrollment increases, the lease can be terminated and capacity recaptured. 43
