Preliminary Conceptual Facility Plan: 2 Issues
1. Increasing Enrollment & Overcrowded Classrooms:
Enrollment projections estimate another 413 students (188 in K-6, 164 in 7-8, and 61 in 9-12). Birth rates as determining factors. It does not take into
account economic growth in Great Falls that might bring in additional families/students.
As of October 6, 2015 65 out of 260 (25%) K-6 classrooms overloaded
according to accreditation standards. 50 out of 124 (40%) K-2 classrooms classified as
overloaded according to accreditation standards. 2. Aging Facilities
The buildings are aged and are in need of upgrades and repairs.

Roosevelt), Skyline Center and Paris Gibson Education Center
