In regards to the usage of mobile classrooms, Dutton said that if the units were
anticipated to be used five years or more, a lease to own arrangement was used; otherwise the
system used a straight lease.
Dr. Boyles said mega units were the most cost effective. He mentioned that if anymore
mobiles were placed at Park View School, playground space would have to be used.
Pertaining to growth, Dr. Boyles said the system had grown 10% this year compared to
8.2% last year. When asked the maximum number of students the schools could reasonably
contain, Dr. Boyles gave the following totals: 750 to 800 for elementary schools; 1200 for
middle schools and 1400-1500 for high schools. He said current research was indicating that
smaller schools performed best, especially high schools. Boyles said the researchers were also
recommending smaller, connecting (elementary/middle/high school) schools. He said a critical
point at Mooresville High would be when the student population reached 2,200. Dr. Boyles said
plans for a new high school needed to begin now since the high school's current population was
at 1,500 and 100 new students each year could be expected.
The other agenda items were then presented and additional information about these may
be found in the regular minutes.
ADJOURNMENT: At 5:30 P.M., Chairman Tice adjourned the briefing session.
