CURRENT ENROLLMENT
In this section of the 2012-2013 Demographic Profile of the Park Hill School District shows data collected on the state’s official student count day and is reflected in various tables, charts and graphs. The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education has established the annual official enrollment count as the number of students in grades K-12 enrolled on the last Wednesday in September of each year. A second enrollment count is taken in January of each year by all Missouri school districts but is not a part of this report.
The student enrollment value should not be confused with the rate of pupil attendance or average daily attendance (ADA), which is the total hours of student attendance divided by the total hours school is in session. In addition, the state utilizes a third measure to calculate student population – membership. Membership totals are used to differentiate full-time students from part-time. The membership of a student is reported as a full-time equivalency (FTE), such that a student enrolled the last Wednesday of September for 6 hours of a 6 hour day would be reported as a 1.00 FTE for September membership. If that same student was enrolled for 2 hours of a 6 hour day the last Wednesday of January, the January membership would be 0.33 FTE.
For the purposes of this report and the projections made at the conclusion of the report, the September enrollment count has been utilized as the benchmark for comparison from year to year. Any exceptions to this are highlighted throughout the report.
This section includes the following tables, charts, and graphs:
District Enrollment (2012-2013). This table summarizes enrollment by school and by grade level.
School Enrollment Distribution (2012-2013). This graph summarizes enrollment by school.
Grade Level Distribution (2012-2013). This graph summarizes enrollment by grade level.
Student Geographic Distribution (2012-2013). This map plots all students from the 2012-2013 school year on a district map.
Student Density (2012-2013). This shows the density of students enrolled from the 2012-2013 school year on a district map.
Grade Level Distribution & Cohort Growth Since Kindergarten - 2012-2013 Enrollment. This graph represents a key concept in projecting student enrollment – “cohort growth”. This graph shows current enrollment by grade level, and also includes the size of the same cohort when they were kindergarteners. As depicted in the graph, Park Hill School District classes generally increase in size as they pass from grade level to grade level.
23
Cohort Growth – Kindergarten through 12th Grade – Class of 2013. The graph shows the cohort change over the last 13 years of the current graduating class, beginning when they were kindergarteners.
Diversity of Enrollment (2012-2013). This pie chart presents the diversity of the 2012-2013 student population.
Growth of Diverse Populations (2004-2013). This graph and corresponding data table shows the increase of diverse populations over the last ten years.
Diverse Populations by School (2012-2013). This graph illustrates the percentage of non-white students within each school.
Growth in Free or Reduced Lunch Population (2004-2013). Monitoring students who receive a free or reduced lunch is a common way for schools and districts to reflect the socioeconomic status of the students and families in the district. This graph shows the increases in the free or reduced population over the last ten years. For the purpose of this annual report and to be consistent with state reporting, the district has utilized the official January membership count to compare free or reduced values.
Free or Reduced Lunch Population by School (2012-2013). This graph illustrates the percentage of free or reduced students within each school. For the purposes of this annual report, the district has utilized the official January count to compare free or reduced values.

PARK HILL SCHOOL DISTRICT MOBILITY DATA
One of the major challenges facing schools is student mobility. A student is considered mobile when they transfer schools. Unfortunately, mobility has been demonstrated to be associated with many negative outcomes, including low achievement, grade retention, and dropping out. Students who are in a school or district for a relatively short time do not have as great of an opportunity to benefit from consistent educational programming. Park Hill School District, like any district, is forced to deal with issues related to mobility. While the educational programming that students receive may not differ significantly when transferring from one building to the next within the district, the same cannot be assumed for transferring in from other districts. The following charts display student mobility rates for Park Hill School District, as defined by the percentage of students who are new to the district. “One year mobility” is the percentage of current students who were not in Park Hill last year. More specifically, these students were here on the 2012-2013 September count day but not here on the 2011-2012 September count day. “Two year mobility” is the percentage of current students who were not in the Park Hill School District two years ago, based on them not being in the district on the past two years’ count days. Kindergarten students are not included in the one year student mobility rates. Likewise, kindergarten and first grade students are not included in the two year student mobility calculation.
This section of the 2012-2013 Demographic Profile of the Park Hill School District depicts six graphs showing student mobility rates for Park Hill School District, as defined by the percentage of students who are new to the Park Hill School District.
District Mobility (2012-2013). This graph shows the number of students new to the district within the past year, and last two years.
District Mobility By Grade Span (2012-2013). This graph disaggregates the mobility data by grade span.
District Mobility By Ethnicity (2012-2013). This graph disaggregates the mobility data by ethnicity.
District Mobility By Free or Reduced Lunch Status (2012-2013). This graph disaggregates the mobility data by free or reduced lunch status.
District Mobility By School (2012-2013). This graph disaggregates the mobility data by school.
Continuous Park Hill Enrollment Since Kindergarten (2012-2013). This graph shows the number of students in each grade level that have been Park Hill School District students for their entire school careers.

SUPPORTING DEMOGRAPHIC DATA
PLATTE COUNTY LIVE BIRTHRATES & KINDERGARTEN ENROLLMENTS
COLLECTING BIRTHRATE DATA
Birthrate data is collected for Platte County by the Missouri Department of Health and is utilized in projecting future kindergarten class sizes. Although not all Platte County births ultimately attend Park Hill schools (four public school districts service families in Platte County), there has been a historical link between the live birthrate in the county, and the subsequent kindergarten enrollment. For example, 2007 yielded one the highest number of births that Platte County had ever seen (1092), and subsequently yielded Park Hill School District’s largest kindergarten class during the 2012-2013 school year (771). This cohort will continue to grow as they move through their educational careers in Park Hill – a phenomenon known as “cohort growth”. The kindergarten class of 2012-2013 is 771 students, and represents the single largest kindergarten class in school district history. Kindergarten class sizes have been the historical highs for three consecutive years beginning in 2010-2011. In addition, the percentage of Platte County births compared to enrollment five years later continues to fall within the range of 65-75%, currently at a level of 70.6%.

HOUSEHOLD DATA
New households within the Park Hill School District are calculated through review of monthly reports
submitted to the district by the Home Builders Association of Greater Kansas City, Platte County (Permit
Reports), and the Kansas City Planning and Development Department. Households are classified as
either single-family residences, or multi-family residences. Multi-family residences include duplexes,
four-plexes and apartment complexes. Rental properties are not included within this calculation.
As of 2012-2013, the Park Hill School District includes 29,678 households. This equates to
approximately 0.35 students per household. Households have steadily increased over the last twenty
years as more residential development has occurred. Since 1980, the district has seen an annual
increase in new households at approximately 475 new households per year. In 2012, 265 new
households were constructed, reflecting over twice the number of new households built in the year
prior and the largest growth in five years. These increases in new home construction in the Park Hill
School District is consistent with the metropolitan Kansas City area and show some recovery in the
housing market that saw smaller fewer new homes in the last five years.
The next page includes the graph: New Households within the School District – 10 Year History. The number of new homes constructed within the school district since the 2003-2004 school year. The graph shows a significant decrease in new homes over the last four years.

SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN WITHIN PARK HILL SCHOOL DISTRICT HOUSEHOLDS
The number of students per household in the Park Hill School District has steadily decreased over the last twenty years. Much of this can be explained due to the increase of multi-family homes (apartments and duplexes) that typically do not yield the number of students as single-family homes. This decrease may also be attributed to families choosing to have fewer children and an aging of the Park Hill School District community. The table below shows data from the last ten years, with the number of households in the Park Hill School District in 2003-2004 at 26,441. As of 2012-2013, each Park Hill household yields .352 students, or approximately 1 student per every 3 households. The number of students per household in the district has decreased slightly over the last 15 years from 0.400 to 0.349 students per household.

FUTURE ENROLLMENT
One benefit to tracking district enrollment trends is the ability to utilize the trend data to project future enrollment. Predicting future enrollment is an important piece in many school processes: long-range planning, budgeting, staffing, and predicting future building and capital needs. The Park Hill School District has utilized two tools to predict future enrollment – cohort growth and household construction patterns. These tools allow for three projection models (3-Year Cohort, 7-Year Cohort, Household) that create an anticipated range of enrollment for future years.
PROJECTION METHODS
COHORT SURVIVAL METHOD
Two of the three methods of projecting student enrollment for future years involve the use of “cohort survival.” Cohort survival is a measure of the rate at which students grouped by grade level pass into the next grade level a year later. For example, in 2011-2012 Park Hill School District’s class of 2nd graders was 725. A year later, this class became a third grade class of 747. Using this example, the rate of cohort survival (3.03% increase) is calculated in the following way:
%03.3725
725747
The 3.03% increase is a measure of the likelihood our second grade class will become larger or smaller as the class passes into the third grade the following year. To minimize the effects of an exceptional year, three and seven-year cohorts are calculated by averaging the cohort survival for three and seven years respectively. The tables below show how three-year and seven-year cohort survival averages are calculated:
3-YEAR COHORT PROJECTION METHOD
To determine projections based upon the three-year cohort, the three-year cohort survival rate is calculated for each grade level, and these rates are added to the previous year’s enrollment. For example, projections for the 1st grade class of 2013-2014 are based upon the 2012-2013 kindergarten enrollment (a known value of 771) and the survival rate of the last three years in which a kindergarten class has become 1st graders (+1.93%). Therefore, the projection for the 2013-2014 1st grade class using this method is 786 students.

2011-2012 753 793 5.31%
3 Year Average Increase 1.93%
46
Projections for subsequent years are calculated using the same three-year cohort survival rates for each grade level.
7-YEAR COHORT PROJECTION METHOD
To determine projections based upon the seven-year cohort, the seven-year cohort survival rate is calculated for each grade level, and these rates are added to the previous year’s enrollment. For example, projections for the 2013-2014 9th grade class is based upon the 2012-2013 8th grade enrollment (a known value of 824) and the survival rate of the last seven years in which an 8th grade class becomes the 9th grade class (6.24%). Therefore, the projection for the 2013-2014 9th grade class using this method is 875 students. Projections for subsequent years are calculated using the same seven-year cohort survival rates for each grade level.
COHORT INDICES
The chart below presents the indices used to project growth from one grade level to the next, utilizing 3-year and 7-year cohort figures. These are current values utilizing data from 2007-2008 to 2012-2013 enrollments.

PREDICTING BIRTHRATES
One challenge posed in using cohort survival as a projection method is estimating the size of the kindergarten class in future years. Since cohort survival cannot be calculated for the kindergarten class (no class comes before it in previous years), Platte County birthrates are used to estimate the kindergarten class size each year. Over the last three years, an average of 69.4% of births in Platte County (known as “live births”) have attended kindergarten in Park Hill School District schools five years later. For example, in 2007 Platte County reported 1092 live births. Five years later, in school year 2012-2013, 771 kindergarten students were enrolled in Park Hill School District. Using known values for Platte County birthrates in years 2008 through 2011, kindergarten enrollment for school years 2013-2014 through 2016-2017 can be estimated based upon known birthrates. To calculate this, a regression with live birth as the dependent variable and change per year as the independent variable is utilized to produce a growth curve model that takes into account the non-linear change pattern. Kindergarten enrollment estimations past the school year 2016-2017 cannot be calculated based upon known births (these children have not yet been born). Values for these kindergarten enrollments are based upon a predicted number of children born in Platte County. To predict this, the same growth curve explained above is used and a regression using kindergarten enrollment as the dependent variable and live births and current year as the independent variable is made. Projections made from 3 years of birth data are input into the 3-year cohort projection model, and projections made from 7 years of birth data are included in the 7-year cohort projection model.

Using these projection models, the kindergarten class size for 2013-2014 is projected to be between 748 (7-Year Projection) and 755 (3-Year Projection) students.
HOUSEHOLD PROJECTIONS METHOD
Enrollment projections, based on households, provide an opportunity to determine student enrollment farther in the future. Part of the downfall to this approach is the projection of both households in the district as well as the number of school age children in each household. The next example provides a description of the number of school age children living within each household for the current school year.

By multiplying the students per household times the number of households in the district, a determination can be made to establish a projected enrollment.
0.352 (students per household) x 29,678 (households in PHSD)
~10,248 (District Enrollment)
As the district continues to increase households, the number of students per household multiplied by the projected households will provide an enrollment projection. To make these projections the following steps are followed:
1. Project the number of households in the Park Hill School District based upon historical growth.
2. Project the number of students per household based upon historical growth.
3. Calculate district enrollment based upon the above two projections.
4. Distribute the enrollment across elementary, middle and high school levels according to historical distribution.
For the household projection method, the district is anticipating the new homes in each year and the students per household values as described in the following table.
The “Students per Household” value of 0.352 has been rounded for this example

BUILDING NEED
One use of student enrollment projections is to anticipate the need for additional school buildings. Although projections are not made for growth of each school, projections are made for each school level – elementary, middle and high school level. Projections when each level will reach effective capacity can be anticipated through the use of maximum and effective building capacity calculations.
MAXIMUM & EFFECTIVE CAPACITIES
Maximum Capacity is defined as the total number of classrooms multiplied by the student capacity for each room, using board policy for class size:
Kindergarten 23 Students
Grades 1-3 25 Students
Grades 4-5 27 Students
Grades 6-8 28 Students
Grades 9-12 30 Students
The chart below illustrates the total number of available classrooms by school and the corresponding maximum capacity. “Available classrooms” is defined by the number of teaching stations utilized during a single period of the day. Schools at their maximum capacities could only provide a significantly altered educational program after maximizing all existing classroom resources.

Effective Capacity is a realistic capacity for each school in order to deliver a diverse curricular program and to host special programs. The effective capacity has been set to utilize 87.5% of the maximum capacity for elementary schools, 80.0% for 6th grade center, 72.5% for the middle schools, and 70% for high schools. By utilizing the percentages in the definition of effective capacity, the chart below indicates the number of students who can be educated in our existing school buildings.
Level Effective Capacity
Percentage 2012-2013
Maximum Capacity Schools 2012-2013 Effective Capacity Per School
Elementary 87.5% 6,080 10 532
6th Grade Center 80.0% 1,064 1 851
Middle 72.5% 2,548 2 924
High 70.0% 5,190 2 1,817
Based on this effective capacity and the current size of schools in the Park Hill School District, new schools may need to be built when student enrollment exceeds the effective capacity listed above. Additional schools may need to be constructed at intervals listed below:
Level Schools New School Every
Elementary 10 532
6th Grade/Middle 3 900
High 2 1,817

SQUARE FOOTAGE ANALYSIS
A more standardized way to calculate capacity limits within school facilities is based upon gross square footage per student calculations. The Council of Educational Facility Planners International (CEFPI) and other organizations and states have created standards for the amount of gross square footage needed within schools to effectively maintain the educational programming demands of today’s schools. The gross square footage standards in the table below have been established based upon standards published by CEFPI, the states of Minnesota and Ohio, and other research based upon gross square footage demands for schools.
School Type Square Footage
Per Student
Elementary Schools 110 sq ft
Middle Schools 125 sq ft
High Schools 145 sq ft The following table lists each district school, their current square footage (not including mobile units), their enrollment, and a status of their current status compared to the square footage standards above. Red symbols indicate schools currently more than 5% beneath the district square footage standard, yellow indicates schools within an acceptable square footage range (within 5%), and green indicates schools with ample square footage for their enrollment (greater than 5% than the standard). A weighted enrollment calculation has been made to account for district programs that require additional space (i.e. elementary functional program) housed in specific schools. The Russell Jones Education Center has not been included in these enrollment numbers or calculations.

FUTURE DISTRICT GROWTH TRENDS
The school district also monitors population trends within the entire community to assist in long-range planning. By looking at current and projected trends in the populations of school-aged children, child bearing females, and the entire population, critical decisions can be made regarding future programming demands, as well as facility neeeds. The next section includes the following maps: Total Population of the Park Hill School District (2010). The Park Hill School District has a population 62,261 in 2011. This map shows the population density by census block. A census block group is a geographical unit used by the United States Census Bureau. It is the smallest geographical unit for which the bureau publishes sample data, i.e. data which is only collected from a fraction of all households. Estimated Percent Change in Population (2010-2022). This map shows the projected change in total population by census block group within district boundaries over ten years. Students New to Park Hill School District (2012-2013). This map shows where students new to the school district live within the Park Hill boundaries. Children Under the Age of 5 (2010). This map shows the population of children under the age of 5 in 2010 by census block. Estimated Change In Children Under the Age of 5 (2010-2022).
