If every current home available, vacant developed lot, and grandparent
in Westlake were to enroll the average number of students currently
attending, the Academy will be able to accommodate them
following our transition plan.
Transition Plan
•Manage the enrollment of secondary boundary students to
accommodate primary boundary growth.
–Maintain two-sections per grade in PYP
–Builds facility capacity while minimizing operational costs
•Complete Phase 1 of the Facility Master Plan to create additional
facility capacity and develop timeline for completion of Phase 2
•If Westlake student enrollment continues in PYP, MYP, and DP
grades, as in years past, the total population will increase slightly,
but attrition should still outpace new enrollment.

Managing enrollment of secondary boundary students and
completing phase 1 will open 364 seats over the next five years.

Secondary Boundary students will most likely be necessary to maintain
optimal classroom sizes in the MYP and DP Programmes.
Recommendations
•End the two-year clause; if a student enters
through the residency exemption and then
leaves the primary boundary, the student
must leave at the end of the school year
•Building Permit applications qualify for
residency status, but enrollment of their child
will be determined by the Superintendent
based upon current classroom size
