As you can see, the enrollment for CPHS has been pretty consistent these past couple of years, averaging about 69 to 70 students.

Even though the School District says there are only 40 continuation students now enrolled, that is just the number of 11th graders becoming seniors this next school year. The administration should be expecting about the same number of students as new continuation students are added to the 11th grade class this coming year.

The spreadsheet also shows that during the past four to five years, El Marino Language School increased the size of its incoming kindergarten lottery, thereby putting more pressure on the District to give them more classroom space.

Looks as if the new bungalow housing Culver Park students will meet the square footage requirement set up by the state.

By using the scale on Google maps, it looks as though the elongated bungalow has about 2700-plus square feet. If they sub-divide that into three rooms, that equals 900 square feet per room, pretty close to the 960 square feet required by the state for a continuation high school.
