CLASS SIZE REVIEW PROCESS. Building principal (or designee) will provide class size data to the SD committee during the May meeting so that the SD can review projected enrollments for the coming school year. The purpose of this data sharing is for the SD committee to identify areas of concern relating to class sizes and composition, and to provide suggestions for changes to the principal (or designee). The principal (or designee) will inform the committee of any changes that are implemented, along with data pertaining to the changes, at the August meeting. After the August meeting, changes in enrollment may necessitate changes in staffing assignments, and any such changes will be communicated to the SD committee.
