STUDENT POPULATION. This component recognizes the unique institutional missions that improve access, retention, and success for underrepresented groups (Aboriginal, first generation, students with disabilities) and francophones. This component also highlights other important student groups that institutions serve that link to their institutional strength. This may include, but is not limited to, international students, mature students, or indirect entrants.

STUDENT POPULATION. It is anticipated Gem Prep will mirror the student demographic population of the school district. Focused recruitment strategies will enabled GP’s student demographic population to roughly reflect the school district’s percentage of non-white, English Language Learner, economically disadvantaged (low income), and special education. Gem Prep schools attempt to mirror the population demographics of the community, and have historically served the same demographics as their surrounding district. Enrollment Capacity Gem Prep’s instructional model includes challenging each student at their comprehension level. One way Gem Prep does this is by placing students in the grade level of their comprehension, not necessarily in the grade level of their birth year. While this practice keeps students academically challenged, changing a student’s grade level placement also creates challenges to keep within the grade level cap, which is the reason a schoolwide cap is necessary as opposed to a grade-level cap. Gem Prep enrollment is capped at 676 students in grades K-12. The table below contains the grade- by-grade plan to grow to 574 students over five years. While the Board has a grade-by-grade plan that targets 574 students, the Board requests a single K-12 enrollment capacity of approximately 676. This approach allows the Board to adjust grade-level student numbers, within the 676 student cap, in order to assure availability for all current students who wish to re-enroll, in order to place students in the grade level of their comprehension, and in response to market needs. For the purpose of the lottery, no less than three months prior to GP’s application deadline, the Board of Directors will establish the annual school-wide enrollment capacity not to exceed 676 students and an annual enrollment capacity for each grade level.

It is anticipated that numbers will return closer to projections in the following years. Enrollment Capacity RISE Charter School plans to open in the fall of 2021 with grades 4-8. The second-year grade 9 will be added. By the third year we will have a better understanding of the community interest in the school and capacity of staff. We plan to add at a minimum grade 10 with the option of adding grades 10-12 all at once if the demand exists. We plan to open with a minimum of 25 students per grade level in year one. This should allow us to be financially viable during the startup year. RISE has decided on a minimum opening target of 25 students per grade level with a maximum capacity of 50 per grade level. Our budget indicates we plan on staffing 7 total teachers the first year. Our intention is to apply for the Federal Charter School Expansion grant that could be used to fund additional staff if needed. Class sizes with only 1 teacher per grade level or content area would be 25. The to...

STUDENT POPULATION. In order to understand XXX’s projected target population, the school’s proposed governing board has examined student ethnicity demographics as well as academic achievement data from all Kindergarten-8th Grade public schools within a 5-mile radius of DAI’s proposed facility 33 Idaho Public Charter School Commission.

STUDENT POPULATION. A student may become pregnant at any time during middle school or high school or may become pregnant after dropping out. Some pregnant and parenting students are on-track for a four year high school graduation and fit neatly into grade levels. However, many pregnant and parenting students are credit deficient, ranging from 1-2 credits behind to several years behind. Enrollment projections by grade level are difficult, if not impossible to ascertain. It is crucial that Cardinal Academy be able to meet students where they are, literally, both in regard to life-timing and academic planning. When a student comes to register at a designated pregnant and parenting program, she or he is frequently in crisis. Life has been turned upside down. Cardinal Academy is a safe place to land; a place free of stigma and rejection. It is essential we not turn the student away due to inflexible calendars. No matter the student’s academic credit standing, we will meet with her/him to create a clear plan for success. Cardinal Academy will operate with block scheduling which allows for more credits to be earned throughout the school year (16 vs 12-14) and students will have the opportunity to earn additional credits over the summer, as well as trying out internships, job shadows, work experiences or other unique training opportunities. This will be a unique plan, based on the student’s previous schooling, Star test measurements in Math and English, and post- secondary goals.

Data for Free and Reduced Lunch Price meals has been skewed for the past 2 years due to temporary waivers to feed all students at no cost.

STUDENT POPULATION. Student sojourners are one of the most examined social groups in the context of cross-cultural integration. (Uehara 1986; Xxxxxx, 2003; Xxxxxxxxxx, 2009; Presbitero, 2016). Scientific interest in examining student population has been growing and studied deeply. Brabant et al. (1990) claim that since World War II, the number of international students doing university degree programs in the United States has significantly increased. Rohrlich & Xxxxxx (1991) similarly state that the issue of international students matriculated at American university degree programs, and those enrolled in academic programs abroad became central. According to Xxxxx (1983) since 1980 (as cited in Rohrlich & Xxxxxx, 1991, p. 163) the number of U.S. undergraduates, who made such choice reached approximately 750, 000 per year. In 2000, the number of Cypriots enrolled in U.S. higher educational settings reached 515,000, which was nearly two and a half times more than in 1976 (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, 2006). Presbitero (2016) documented that in 2012, more than 400,000 foreign students visited Australia for the purpose of obtaining college/university degrees. Latest papers suggest that the number of the inbound and outbound international student population has gradually grown year by year. For example, Xxx & Xxx (2016) state that Chinese overseas students had an increase by 3, 58% in 2013 in contrast to 2012 and those returning home exceeded by 29, 53% compared with the year before. Given the steady growth towards the international student sojourn indicates the urgency of understanding foreign students' re-entry experiences. As a part of the international exchange program, Bolashak scholarship holders are likely the largest student sojourn population in the country. Over 25 years, about 12,000 specialists have been graduated from overseas university academic programs and many have already returned back to Kazakhstan. Their re-entry experiences and adjustment issues to the home country upon return are of great concern and need to be managed accordingly. Such a considerable number of returned graduates encourage examining their adjustment difficulties to the life at home upon return.
