School Construction
Priority Ranking Process and Status
Due to limited Funding, only projects addressing
emergency needs, crowded classrooms and aging buildings have
been funded. Funding is prioritized in the following
categories, and districts are ranked according to need within
their categories:
- manmade or natural disasters
- overcrowding due to population growth or aging buildings
- school district reorganization (consolidation or annexation)
- severe and continuing health/life safety hazards
- provide accessibility for qualified individuals with disabilities
- other unique solutions to facility needs
For each priority other than priority five, accessibility
for individuals with disabilities, districts are ranked based
on the number of inadequately housed students which currently
exists in the district. That number is calculated by
subtracting the district's current available capacity from
the current enrollment. A district's ranking within
a level of priority is then determined by multiplying its
current needed capacity by the ratio of its needed capacity
to its enrollment. The higher the number, the
higher the ranking.
For priority five, the district's needed capacity is the
number of qualified individuals with disabilities who require
a school construction project.
