HCPSS MPIA Request #2018-155

Requested Information
Please provide a document clearly explanation the process, calculations, procedures used for the "Projection Methodology" defined under Item I. of Policy 6010-IP. I understand that the projections vary for each school districts depending on the level of the schools (ES, MS and HS) and also on the location/zoning. If the software used by OSP is built to perform this exercise, I would like to receive a copy of Operations Manual for that software, and the logic used to build the model.

Please note, this document was created/updated in 2013 and although no additional existing documents reflect changes in the process, calculations and procedures, staff has updated its use as other methods were found to be more effective in the past five years. For that reason, this document is not a complete reflection of projection methodology and should be considered a referential resource only. For any questions or concerns about the planning process, please contact the Office of School Planning at 410-313-7184 or SchoolPlanning@hcpss.org.
