4. Current Policy – JECB/JECC Section III, 2.Elementary School Standards a - b a)When enrollment in grades K-5 reaches 22 students in any one class with a particular grade level, all other classes within that same grade level must also have 22 students before a 23 student may be added to any one particular class. This same concept must be applied to increase class size beyond 23 students. Assignment preference occurs for any student when their older sibling has previously enrolled and currently attends the school to which the student desires to attend. b)Classes exceeding acceptable size, as stated above, will be adjusted by the board where possible by requiring new enrollees to attend a school which has available space in that class. Students who are force transferred may not be changed for the remainder of the school year.

5. Proposed Change – JECB/JECC Section III, 2.Elementary School Standards a - d 2. To increase flexibility in student assignment and to increase parental choice, the district shall use the following guide to direct placement of elementary students: a. When a K-1 student population within a particular building exceeds a 24-1 student to teacher ratio, any new enrolling student may be force transferred to another building. b. When a 2-3 student population within a particular building exceeds a 26-1 student to teacher ratio, any new enrolling student may be force transferred to another building. c. When a 4-5 student population within a particular building exceeds a 28-1 student to teacher ratio, any new enrolling student may be force transferred to another building. d. No intra-district transfer request will be granted if the requested school’s student-to-teacher ratio exceeds 18 students to 1 teacher for the requested grade unless extenuating circumstances exist and must be approved by the superintendent.
