* The Potential capacity reflects the increase gained by recapturing currently underutilized<br />
classrooms. These include spaces 660 square feet and larger presently assigned to the IU, used by<br />
guidance, enrichment, health, head start, and additional art or music rooms. The Potential <strong>District</strong><br />
capacity assumes an average of 23 students per recaptured classroom.<br />
** The Present capacity of Blue Bell reflects a reduction of one classroom to account for the fact that<br />
Music is housed in the temporary building. This necessitates displacing a room within the main<br />
building.<br />
