Executive Summary 
The purpose of this study is to calculate elementary school capacities to be used in capital budget 
planning, feasibility studies, and redistricting. This report updates the 2009 Elementary Facility 
Assessments by Gilbert Architects Inc. For the 2013-2014 school year, 41 Howard County elementary 
schools used 1,094 teaching stations to deliver the core elementary curriculum to 23,327 K-5 students. 
Additional space was used for related arts, gifted and talented, technology, and instrumental music 
classes. Other small spaces throughout each building were used for individual and small group instruction 
and regional programs. 
The study applied proven methodology through use of new technology to deliver an easy-to-update 
capacity analysis system. This methodology should be used to review and update school capacities 
following future additions or renovations. School year 2013-2014 room assignments were used as a 
starting point, and then adjusted to accommodate all required elementary program uses at approved 
staffing ratios. The result is a recommended capacity for each building. Capital planning and redistricting 
scenarios cannot depend upon temporary capacity; so all activities were accounted for in space within the 
buildings. This study is not designed to recommend a more efficient use of the floor plan to school 
administrators. Any administrator may adopt ideas from this report but it is assumed that their 2013-2014 
room assignments reflected a reasonable use of each floor plan. 
The study follows approved HCPSS standards. The minimum classroom size of 660 square feet (SF) 
reflects the approved HCPSS Renovation Guidelines. Class size ratios of 22:1 for kindergarten, 19:1 for 
Grades 1-2, and 25:1 for Grades 3-5 follow Board of Education Policy. Educational program requirements 
reflect the approved 1994 Elementary Educational Specifications (Ed Spec) and current instructional 
priorities and practices. The analysis followed these steps: 
1. Verify current floor plan and room uses, using data from the 2013-2014 school year. 
2. Count the number of rooms meeting the minimum size of 660 SF to determine gross capacity. 
3. Exclude regional programs, core spaces, and utility areas from gross capacity. 
4. Identify other educational program areas sized between 400-660 SF. 
5. Assign related arts and electives to other educational program area rooms as appropriate. 
6. Subtract classrooms from gross capacity to satisfy any remaining needs for related arts and 
electives. 
7. Distribute grades to remaining net capacity rooms, guided by current usage. 
8. Calculate capacity based on staffing ratios per grade. 
This count excluded regional programs, early childhood education rooms, and core spaces such as the 
office, gym and cafeteria. When necessary, rooms were removed from the gross capacity room count to 
accommodate these uses. The remaining capacity rooms were assigned for use based upon 2013-2014 
floor plans, and capacity was calculated using approved staffing ratios. Any remaining rooms in the net 
capacity count (indicated with *on the floor plan) that were not currently assigned to a K-5 classroom were 
assigned capacity based on their location in the building or a logical distribution of rooms across the 
grades. 
This analysis resulted in a net increase of 415 seats in elementary capacity throughout the system. This 
increase is not the equivalent of a “new facility,” because the results reflect marginal changes throughout 
existing schools. Results show eleven schools with reduced capacity, totaling 285 seats, while 25 schools 
show increased capacity totaling 779 seats. Five schools would maintain their existing capacity. 
Elementary schools with the greatest proposed capacity reductions include Cradlerock Elementary School 
(ES), Pointers Run ES, and Waverly ES. Hammond ES, Waterloo ES, and Thunder Hill ES are among 
those with the highest proposed increase in capacity. Longfellow ES, Deep Run ES, Running Brook ES, 
and Laurel Woods ES are currently undergoing renovation or additions that will impact their capacities. 
The Running Brook ES addition that opened in school year 2014-2015 is included in the calculation. Other 
renovations that are opening in future years are handled as stated on the present floor plan diagrams, 
which are included with this report.

Introduction 
In August 2009, Gilbert Architects Inc. prepared a facility assessment for all forty HCPSS elementary 
schools operating at that time. This facility assessment had two distinct components: a programmatic 
assessment to identify how well each building is supporting the delivery of the educational program 
based on the school board adopted educational specifications for elementary schools prepared by 
Gilbert Architects Inc. (GAI); and a facilities condition assessment to identify the condition of the physical 
plant, building systems, and an estimate of the deferred maintenance costs for each building which was 
prepared by Facilities Engineering Associates (FEA). 
Since 2009, Ducketts Lane ES has opened and a number of renovations and additions have been made in 
several elementary schools. This document is an update to the 2009 programmatic assessment 
specifically to determine the actual building capacities of each of the elementary schools. The capacity 
determinations made in this report will be used for long term planning by the Office of School Planning 
including the capital budget. 
The broad based conclusion that can be drawn from this study is that there are 415 additional seats of 
elementary school capacity across the school system that can be considered for future planning. While 
a net additional capacity has been found overall, this report does propose capacity reductions at some 
schools, compared to what was reported in the August 2009 Facility Assessment. 
Where a reduced capacity is observed, it is often due to the assignment of regional programs to the 
facility. These regional programs may include regional early childhood centers (RECC), academic life skills 
(ALS) and early childhood (Pre-K) programs. For example, Waverly ES observed a reduced capacity 
because three rooms assigned to ALS that are appropriately sized for general education teaching 
stations. 
Many of the changes in capacity are the result of changes in educational specifications and building use 
over time. Additionally, while capacity has been added in areas of growth around the county, it appears 
the capacity added by new capital projects was understated in some instances. When construction 
document reports are presented to the Board of Education they do not present the proposed capacity in 
the context of a system wide analysis. 
Methodology 
School districts and state educational authorities calculate school capacity in a variety of ways but most 
models can be broken into three categories: 
 Net area model - divides the net area of the school building (entire building minus special 
programs) by a square foot per student factor to determine student capacity. 
 Instructional area model - divides instructional areas (spaces with teachers assigned to them) by 
a square foot per student factor to determine the student capacity of each space. 
 Number of classrooms model - applies a student per classroom ratio to all general education 
classrooms to determine student capacity. 
HCPSS uses the number of classrooms model, an approach which is common in Maryland and is used by 
Maryland State Department of Education. Specifically this model counts the number of grade level 
classrooms and applies student- to-teacher ratios which vary by elementary grade. Other rooms may 
directly serve educational programming but are not counted as part of capacity. These rooms are referred 
to as undersized rooms in this report. Examples include related arts or elective programming. A school 
administrator has the latitude to change room assignments as needed which can change the capacity of 
the school. 
To calculate the full potential capacity of the school, this study itemizes the building capacity based on the 
2013-2014 room use to determine the gross capacity. Room assignments are then adjusted to be 
consistent with educational specifications and to ensure that typical staffing considerations can be

accommodated within the building. No relocatable classrooms are used in determining building capacity 
per HCPSS Policy 6010. The graphic representations of floor plans in this report show what was collected 
for each school in 2013 on the left side and how calculations were made on the right side. The results from 
these calculations comprise the recommended capacity, accounting for all elementary school program requirements. 
The analysis followed these steps: 
Methodology Summary: 
1. Verify current floor plan and room uses (2013-2014 school year). 
2. Count rooms meeting minimum size of 660 SF (Gross capacity). 
3. Exclude regional programs, core spaces, and utility areas from gross capacity. 
4. Identify other educational program areas between 400-660 SF. 
5. Assign related arts and electives to other educational program area rooms, as appropriate. 
6. Subtract classrooms from Gross Capacity to satisfy any remaining needs for related arts and 
electives. 
7. Distribute grades to remaining net capacity rooms, guided by current usage. 
8. Calculate capacity based on staffing ratios per grade. 
Data Collection Process 
The data base information prepared by the HCPSS provided an invaluable wealth of information GAI 
could use in the evaluation of information for the elementary schools outlined herein. Computer aided 
drafting (CAD) floor plans provided by GAI and other architects were digitized into the HCPSS Geographic 
Information System (GIS) database and spatially adjusted, preserving dimensions and scale from the 
original file. Each school provided a diagram from which room uses were taken and entered as 
attributes in the GIS. Room usage and building layout were then checked in the field during visits to each 
school. Onsite changes were made using an iPad with the ArcGIS Collector application installed. 
This information was then re-checked using ArcGIS Desktop to verify the results against any other data 
provided by the school and as-built construction plans. GAI was provided with a published map file and 
data package for use in Arc Reader. Data was displayed on a color-coded map, with each room labeled 
by use category and area. The use of this technology and the data collection process completed by the 
HCPSS provided an accurate baseline for GAI to analyze the capacity of each of school. This system 
remains under HCPSS ownership for continued use by school planning staff and school administrators. 
The floor plans and capacity statistics in this report come from a GIS database. This system allows floor 
plan information to be maintained by multiple users in offices or school sites. As the backbone of the data 
collection process, the initiation of this system has been a valuable improvement to this study over 
previous capacity studies. Where in the past, difficult to use computer aided design (CAD) files were 
distributed between consulting architects and some staff but they were not easily accessed by other staff. 
The result of this project is that the HCPSS owns a centralized database of all building floor plans that can 
be accessed using web applications.

Gross Capacity Room Count 
The building capacity for an elementary school is determined by the number of grade level classrooms 
available in the school that meet the minimum square footage requirements. Using the “HCPSS 
Guidelines Manual for Renovations and Modernizations of Existing Schools” adopted by the Board of 
Education in 2009, the minimum square footage for a kindergarten classroom is 750 SF. For grades 1-5, 
the minimum square footage for a classroom is 660 SF. These minimum square footage allowances 
include any support rooms, such as toilet rooms or storage rooms, which are accessed from the classroom. 
Any rooms that do not meet the minimum square footage requirements are determined to be undersized 
and are not counted toward capacity. To allow for any discrepancies in room sizes in the GIS database, for 
the purpose of this study we assumed a 3percent margin of error and assigned capacity if the room size 
met the minimum square footage as follows: 
Kindergarten: 750 SF less 3% = a minimum room size of 727.5 SF 
Grades 1-5: 660 SF less 3% = a minimum room size of 640.2 SF 
Minimum classroom square footage does not mean all classrooms are of minimum size. In fact, the 
average grade 1-5 classroom size found in this study is 748 SF and nearly all are over 660 SF (standard 
deviation is 80 SF). The risk of setting a higher minimum, such as 700 SF, is the loss of 145 capacity 
rooms, or over four schools worth of capacity. Schools that would be impacted by raising the minimum 
square footage to 700 SF, i.e. a net loss in capacity, include Cradlerock ES, Forest Ridge ES, and Guilford 
ES, as well as Swansfield ES and Talbott Springs ES. 
Undersized Rooms 
Rooms meeting these descriptions were not included in the net capacity room count: 
 Rooms below 660 SF in area. 
 Any educational program area such as art, music (vocal, instrumental), and the media center were 
not assigned capacity. 
 Computer and Gifted and Talented (GT) classrooms were not assigned capacity. 
 Support rooms, such as special education classrooms, English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), 
alternative education (Alt Ed), reading, math, speech, and occupational therapy/physical therapy 
(OT/PT) were not assigned capacity. 
 Regional and specialized programs (refer to Attachment A) were not assigned capacity. These rooms 
could be counted towards capacity if the program was ever relocated to another school. The capacity at 
that other school would be reduced to accommodate the regional program. 
 Building support rooms such as administration, cafeteria and kitchen, gymnasium, stage and mini 
auditoriums were not assigned capacity. Recreation and Parks Activities rooms were not assigned 
capacity. 
 Relocatable classrooms were not assigned capacity. Any classroom activities housed relocatable 
classrooms were assigned to rooms in the building for this study. 
 Rooms that will fulfill the expanded Pre-K needs of the new world class elementary education pilot 
program during the 2014-2015 school year are identified. The schools slated for this program are: 
o Bryant Woods ES 
o Phelps Luck ES 
o Running Brook ES 
o Stevens Forest ES 
o Talbott Springs ES 
Rooms with area between 400 SF and 660 SF are frequently used for educational programming and 
support spaces. The 1994 Ed Spec allows for many of these rooms to be of a smaller size but there are 
no specific minimum area recommendations identified in the HCPSS renovation guidelines for related 
arts rooms. 
HCPSS 2013‐14 Elementary School Capacity Update Page 6
Howard County Public School System Gilbert Architects 
Based upon observed averages and the 1994 Ed Spec, this study makes the following specifications that 
the minimum square footage shall be: 
 >660 SF for art and vocal music 
 >or = to 400 SF for GT, instrumental music and computer lab (room) 
As educational programs continue to evolve through the use of technology, so does the design of spaces 
within the school to accommodate these new learning opportunities. Although a few elementary schools 
have an “activity room”, the inclusion of a large open space, “extended learning area,” or “commons area” 
is not recognized as part of the current HCPSS Elementary Ed Spec. These areas can host more social 
learning and collaboration‐based activities but are not fully developed as part of the elementary school 
curriculum. Therefore, allocating space within the building for this use, which would be sizable, is beyond 
the scope of this capacity study and was not considered. In this study these spaces are referred to “student 
work areas” to differentiate them from “staff work areas.” 
Accounting for Related Arts and Elective Programming 
In order to account for all of the related arts and elective programming, it was necessary in this report to 
develop a method that rationalizes the educational specifications and staffing ratios. While vocal music, art, 
and computer lab are staffed based on school enrollment, GT and instrumental music are staffed using 
anticipated (elective) participation. The methodology used in this report seeks to find the minimum for each 
type of program offered at a school. The staffing ratio used for art and vocal music was extended to GT 
and instrumental music for purposes of this calculation. 
Staffing allocations for related arts and elective programming are made according to approved ratios or 
participation. Since staff assignments are made based on projected enrollment, and not considering 
capacity utilization, there is an assumption that space will be found for all assigned teachers. This leads to 
space usage (efficiency) concerns. This study applies a staffing ratio for related arts and elective 
programming based on the number of appropriately-sized rooms within the building. For example, in a 
school with fewer than 28 K-5 teachers, the staffing ratios call for one teacher for art, computer lab*, vocal 
music, instrumental music (combined band/strings), and gifted and talented (GT). 
The criteria identified below are based on staffing ratios and typical participation for schools of each 
size. These factors are rationalized to the gross capacity of the school in classrooms with the 
following three templates: 
1. Small building that has less than or equal to 30 gross capacity rooms 
2. Medium building that has 31-35 gross capacity rooms and at least three additional rooms larger 
than 400 SF 
3. Large building with greater than 36 gross capacity rooms and at least six additional rooms larger than 
400 SF 
*Each elementary school is assigned a technology teacher although there may not be a 
dedicated classroom assigned for the program. Typically technology instruction is delivered in 
classrooms other than the computer lab. The approach used for identifying related arts and 
elective programming is summarized in the diagram on the next page.

Figure 1 ‐ Net Capacity Calculation Process 
Based upon the specified sizes of greater than 660 SF for art and vocal music and at least 400 SF for 
instrumental music, or GT and computer lab, room assignments were made in the building for the 
required related arts. Where ever possible, these requirements were met using rooms that were identified 
as being undersized to receive capacity for K-5 classrooms but were within the size requirements 
assumed herein for related arts or elective programs. If necessary, classrooms were subtracted from the 
gross capacity count to ensure all educational programs could be met. 
The first decision in assigning these classrooms was the number of gross capacity rooms. The staffing 
and participation formulas mostly break out into small and large schools. In the case of a small school of 
30 gross capacity classrooms, five rooms are needed for related arts to cover potential staffing. Two must 
at least 660 SF for vocal music and art. Many art and music classrooms are obvious on the floor plan 
because they were built specifically for those uses. These would be difficult to convert to a K-5 classroom. 
Three must be at least 400 SF for instrumental music, GT, and computer lab. If such rooms are not 
available they are subtracted from the gross capacity. Where capacity rooms must be subtracted to 
account for GT or instrumental music, only the minimum is removed to meet the requirement. 
Once a school reaches 36 gross capacity classrooms twice the related arts component is needed to cover 
potential staffing. Some fall in between the small and large categories. The limiting factor was if two art 
and vocal music classrooms were used in 2013-2014. Otherwise, the school should be calculated as a 
small school.

grade level. The net capacity room count includes one additional room (*) receives capacity and is assigned 
the grade (1-2) capacity of 19 students per room because it is adjacent to other grade 2 classrooms. The 
resulting proposed capacity is 424. 
Bellows Springs ES (BSES) 
2013-2014 School Use Plan 
The 2013-2014 school year capacity for BSES was 762. The building has 40 rooms that qualify as capacity 
rooms (“gross capacity room count”), and seven that qualify as undersized rooms. These counts qualify 
BSES as a “large” building, requiring two capacity rooms each for art and vocal music, as well as two 
undersized classrooms each for instrumental music, GT, and computer labs. 
Capacity Study Use Plan 
Two existing resource rooms are counted for GT freeing up the two capacity rooms which are currently 
assigned to GT for classrooms. The strings room is counted for instrumental music and a resource room is 
counted for the second instrumental music. A capacity room was hosting technology is counted for the 
second vocal music room. The (2) existing art, (1) existing vocal music and (1) existing computer lab, as 
well as the existing strings and computer lab that are counted for the (2) instrumental music and the (1) 
capacity room that is counted for vocal music, are subtracted from the gross capacity room count. The 
result is 33 net capacity rooms. As depicted on the “Capacity Key”, 30 of the net capacity rooms were used 
as teaching stations in 2013-2014, and receive capacity based on their existing use by grade level. The net 
capacity room count includes three additional rooms (*) receiving capacity: two are assigned the grade (1-2) 
capacity of 19 students because they are near other grade (1-2) rooms. Two are assigned the grade (3-5) 
capacity of 25 students per room because of their proximity to similar rooms. The resulting proposed 
capacity is 726. 
Bollman Bridge ES (BBES) 
2013-2014 School Use Plan 
The 2013 school year capacity for BBES was 663. The building has 37 rooms that qualify as capacity 
rooms (“gross capacity room count”), and only three that qualify as undersized rooms. Since there are not 
six undersized classrooms, BBES must be classified as a “medium” building, requiring one capacity room 
each for art and vocal music as well as one undersized room each for instrumental music, GT, and 
computer lab. 
Capacity Study Use Plan 
An existing undersized room is counted for the second computer lab. A reading room is counted as the 
second vocal music. The (2) existing art, (1) existing vocal, (1) existing instrumental music, (1) existing GT 
and (1) existing computer lab, as well as the second reading room that is counted for the (1) additional 
vocal music, are subtracted from the gross capacity room count. The result is 30 net capacity rooms. As 
depicted on the “Capacity Key”, all rooms were used as teaching stations in 2013-2014, and receive 
capacity based on their existing use by grade level. The resulting proposed capacity is 666. 
Bryant Woods ES (BWES) 
2013-2014 School Use Plan 
The 2013-2014 school year capacity for BWES was 355. The building has 19 rooms that qualify as capacity 
rooms (“gross capacity room count”), and two that qualify as undersized rooms. These counts qualify 
BWES as a “small” building, requiring one capacity room each for art and vocal music, as well as one 
undersized room each instrumental music, GT) and computer lab. Two Pre-K rooms were added for the 
implementation of the Elementary School Model Initiative. 
Capacity Study Use Plan 
A capacity room is counted for vocal music since the current vocal music will be assigned to Pre-K in 2014- 
2015. The (1) existing art and (1) existing computer lab, as well as the (1) capacity room that is counted for 
HCPSS 2013‐14 Elementary School Capacity Update Page 10
vocal music, are subtracted from the gross capacity room count. The result is 16 net capacity rooms. As 
depicted on the “Capacity Key”, all rooms were used as teaching stations in 2013-2014, and receive 
capacity based on their existing use by grade level. The resulting proposed capacity is 361. 
Bushy Park ES (BPES) 
2013-2014 School Use Plan 
The 2013-2014 school year capacity for BPES was 788. The building has 42 rooms that qualify as capacity 
rooms (“gross capacity room count”), and seven that qualify as undersized rooms. The building has two 
capacity rooms each for art and vocal music designed into the floor plan. These counts qualify BPES as a 
“large” building, requiring two capacity rooms each for art and vocal music, as well as two undersized rooms 
each for instrumental music, GT, and computer labs. 
Capacity Study Use Plan 
The (2) existing art, (2) existing vocal music, (2) existing instrumental music, and (1) existing computer lab 
are subtracted from the gross capacity room count. The result is 35 net capacity rooms. As depicted on the 
“Capacity Key”, 27 of the net capacity rooms were used as teaching stations in 2013-14, and receive 
capacity based on their existing use by grade level. The net capacity room count includes eight additional 
rooms (*) receiving capacity: one is assigned the grade (K) capacity of 22 students; three the grade (1-2) 
capacity of 19 students; and four the grade (3-5) capacity of 25 students per room. The resulting proposed 
capacity is 788. 
Centennial Lane ES (CLES) 
2013-2014 School Use Plan 
The 2013 school year capacity for CLES was 628. The building has 34 rooms that qualify as capacity rooms 
(“gross capacity room count”), and only two that qualify as undersized rooms. The floor plan only shows one 
capacity room each designed for art and vocal music. These counts qualify CLES as a “medium” building, 
requiring one capacity room each for art and, vocal music, instrumental music, gifted and talented, and a 
computer lab. 
Capacity Study Use Plan 
The (1) existing art, (1) existing vocal music, (1) existing instrumental music, (1) existing GT and (1) existing

Elementary School Floor Plans 
11”x17” floor plan graphics are attached to this document in a separate packet. These graphically 
represent the input and output of the study. 
Figure 3 ‐ Example of attached floor plan graphic 
Depicted on the left side of the floor plan graphic is the 2013-2014 school year usage. This information was 
collected from each school for this study. Slight changes may have occurred for the present school year. On 
the right side, the capacity calculation work is shown. Capacity rooms are outlined in blue. The 
nomenclature provided on the floor plans for each school depicts the grade level of the room and the 
capacity assigned to that room. For instance, a kindergarten classroom would be noted “Kindergarten (22).” 
The notation indicates that the room meets the required 750 SF area for a kindergarten and 22 is the assigned 
capacity of the room. Rooms meeting the 660 SF minimum area are assigned to other classrooms. For 
grades 1 and 2, the notation is, ”Grade 1 (19)” and “Grade 2 (19),” respectfully. For grades 3 through 5 the 
convention is also the same but the assigned capacity is shown as “(25).” Rooms that meet the minimum 
square footage for a classroom and are included in the net capacity room count are noted with an (*) as 
observed available capacity. Rooms were assigned to account for required number of related arts and 
elective programming as using the net capacity calculation process noted in- Net Capacity Calculation 
Process Figure 1 on page 8 and noted accordingly on the floor plans. This report is not recommending a 
change to the use of any specific room. Notes showing reassignments are shown to illustrate how that room 
was counted in the capacity calculation. A capacity key is provided to tabulate the proposed capacity of the 
school.

2013-2014 Elementary School Capacity Summaries 
Tables 2 through 12 on pages 26 through 31 present detailed summary data for the capacity analysis. The 
following notations are used in these tables: 
CIP Capacity 
Elementary capacities presently reported in the current HCPSS Capital Improvement Program (CIP) in 
the FY2015 Capital Budget and other documents including the June 2014 Feasibility Study. 
Gross Capacity Rooms 
This measure is a count of all rooms meeting the minimum size of 660 SF. This count excludes regional 
programs, core spaces, and utility areas. 
Undersized Classrooms 
Undersized classrooms are identified as those core classrooms (classrooms serving grades 
K-5) that do not meet the square footage requirements set forth in the HCPSS “Guidelines Manual for 
Renovations and Modernizations of Existing Schools” dated February 2009 (i.e. a minimum of 750 SF for 
kindergarten and a minimum of 660 SF for grades 1-5). Undersized classrooms do not receive capacity, 
but may be used to accommodate related arts requirements if they are 400 SF or greater in size. 
Relocatable Classrooms 
A modularized building type that is not a permanent structure integrated as part of the main building. 
They are usually installed on temporary piers versus standard foundations. Although these structures 
may house general instruction and meet the minimum square footage requirements, they are not 
assigned capacity. The number of relocatable classrooms is provided for information only. 
Official 9/30/2014 Enrollments 
The official September 30, 2013 enrollment numbers for the 2013-2014 school year have been provided 
for reference. 
State Rated Capacity 
The State Rated Capacity (SRC) is the number of students that the Maryland Interagency Committee (IAC) 
or its designee determines that an individual school has the physical capacity to enroll and can be 
reasonably accommodated in a facility. The SRC and the actual and projected enrollments are used by 
the IAC’s Designees and local jurisdictions to establish the utilization of a facility. Utilization is a criterion 
used by the IAC in evaluating whether a particular school is overcrowded such that relief is needed and 
provision of additional space through a capital project for capacity may be warranted. 
All permanent instructional spaces in an elementary school are counted in the SRC. These spaces 
include typical classrooms as well as self - contained special education classrooms that are used by the 
students receiving special education services outside the general classroom setting for more than 
60percent of the school day. The spaces that are not counted towards the SRC include spaces used 
for special subject areas and used by different groups of students such as resource rooms, physical 
education rooms, the library media center, etc. State or locally owned relocatable classrooms are not 
counted towards capacity except when music and art programs located in the relocatable are provided 
more than 50 percent of the school week, one permanent classroom for each subject shall be deducted 
from the total number of classrooms before calculating the SRC. 
The SRC for an elementary school classroom depends upon assignment. Pre-kindergarten is 20 students 
per classroom. Kindergarten is 22 students per classroom. Grades 1 to 5 are 23 students per classroom. 
Self-Contained Special Education classroom is 10 students per classroom

  • 3. Howard County Public School System Gilbert Architects Executive Summary The purpose of this study is to calculate elementary school capacities to be used in capital budget planning, feasibility studies, and redistricting. This report updates the 2009 Elementary Facility Assessments by Gilbert Architects Inc. For the 2013-2014 school year, 41 Howard County elementary schools used 1,094 teaching stations to deliver the core elementary curriculum to 23,327 K-5 students. Additional space was used for related arts, gifted and talented, technology, and instrumental music classes. Other small spaces throughout each building were used for individual and small group instruction and regional programs. The study applied proven methodology through use of new technology to deliver an easy-to-update capacity analysis system. This methodology should be used to review and update school capacities following future additions or renovations. School year 2013-2014 room assignments were used as a starting point, and then adjusted to accommodate all required elementary program uses at approved staffing ratios. The result is a recommended capacity for each building. Capital planning and redistricting scenarios cannot depend upon temporary capacity; so all activities were accounted for in space within the buildings. This study is not designed to recommend a more efficient use of the floor plan to school administrators. Any administrator may adopt ideas from this report but it is assumed that their 2013-2014 room assignments reflected a reasonable use of each floor plan. The study follows approved HCPSS standards. The minimum classroom size of 660 square feet (SF) reflects the approved HCPSS Renovation Guidelines. Class size ratios of 22:1 for kindergarten, 19:1 for Grades 1-2, and 25:1 for Grades 3-5 follow Board of Education Policy. Educational program requirements reflect the approved 1994 Elementary Educational Specifications (Ed Spec) and current instructional priorities and practices. The analysis followed these steps: 1. Verify current floor plan and room uses, using data from the 2013-2014 school year. 2. Count the number of rooms meeting the minimum size of 660 SF to determine gross capacity. 3. Exclude regional programs, core spaces, and utility areas from gross capacity. 4. Identify other educational program areas sized between 400-660 SF. 5. Assign related arts and electives to other educational program area rooms as appropriate. 6. Subtract classrooms from gross capacity to satisfy any remaining needs for related arts and electives. 7. Distribute grades to remaining net capacity rooms, guided by current usage. 8. Calculate capacity based on staffing ratios per grade. This count excluded regional programs, early childhood education rooms, and core spaces such as the office, gym and cafeteria. When necessary, rooms were removed from the gross capacity room count to accommodate these uses. The remaining capacity rooms were assigned for use based upon 2013-2014 floor plans, and capacity was calculated using approved staffing ratios. Any remaining rooms in the net capacity count (indicated with *on the floor plan) that were not currently assigned to a K-5 classroom were assigned capacity based on their location in the building or a logical distribution of rooms across the grades. This analysis resulted in a net increase of 415 seats in elementary capacity throughout the system. This increase is not the equivalent of a “new facility,” because the results reflect marginal changes throughout existing schools. Results show eleven schools with reduced capacity, totaling 285 seats, while 25 schools show increased capacity totaling 779 seats. Five schools would maintain their existing capacity. Elementary schools with the greatest proposed capacity reductions include Cradlerock Elementary School (ES), Pointers Run ES, and Waverly ES. Hammond ES, Waterloo ES, and Thunder Hill ES are among those with the highest proposed increase in capacity. Longfellow ES, Deep Run ES, Running Brook ES, and Laurel Woods ES are currently undergoing renovation or additions that will impact their capacities. The Running Brook ES addition that opened in school year 2014-2015 is included in the calculation. Other renovations that are opening in future years are handled as stated on the present floor plan diagrams, which are included with this report.

  • 4. Howard County Public School System Gilbert Architects Introduction In August 2009, Gilbert Architects Inc. prepared a facility assessment for all forty HCPSS elementary schools operating at that time. This facility assessment had two distinct components: a programmatic assessment to identify how well each building is supporting the delivery of the educational program based on the school board adopted educational specifications for elementary schools prepared by Gilbert Architects Inc. (GAI); and a facilities condition assessment to identify the condition of the physical plant, building systems, and an estimate of the deferred maintenance costs for each building which was prepared by Facilities Engineering Associates (FEA). Since 2009, Ducketts Lane ES has opened and a number of renovations and additions have been made in several elementary schools. This document is an update to the 2009 programmatic assessment specifically to determine the actual building capacities of each of the elementary schools. The capacity determinations made in this report will be used for long term planning by the Office of School Planning including the capital budget. The broad based conclusion that can be drawn from this study is that there are 415 additional seats of elementary school capacity across the school system that can be considered for future planning. While a net additional capacity has been found overall, this report does propose capacity reductions at some schools, compared to what was reported in the August 2009 Facility Assessment. Where a reduced capacity is observed, it is often due to the assignment of regional programs to the facility. These regional programs may include regional early childhood centers (RECC), academic life skills (ALS) and early childhood (Pre-K) programs. For example, Waverly ES observed a reduced capacity because three rooms assigned to ALS that are appropriately sized for general education teaching stations. Many of the changes in capacity are the result of changes in educational specifications and building use over time. Additionally, while capacity has been added in areas of growth around the county, it appears the capacity added by new capital projects was understated in some instances. When construction document reports are presented to the Board of Education they do not present the proposed capacity in the context of a system wide analysis. Methodology School districts and state educational authorities calculate school capacity in a variety of ways but most models can be broken into three categories:  Net area model - divides the net area of the school building (entire building minus special programs) by a square foot per student factor to determine student capacity.  Instructional area model - divides instructional areas (spaces with teachers assigned to them) by a square foot per student factor to determine the student capacity of each space.  Number of classrooms model - applies a student per classroom ratio to all general education classrooms to determine student capacity. HCPSS uses the number of classrooms model, an approach which is common in Maryland and is used by Maryland State Department of Education. Specifically this model counts the number of grade level classrooms and applies student- to-teacher ratios which vary by elementary grade. Other rooms may directly serve educational programming but are not counted as part of capacity. These rooms are referred to as undersized rooms in this report. Examples include related arts or elective programming. A school administrator has the latitude to change room assignments as needed which can change the capacity of the school. To calculate the full potential capacity of the school, this study itemizes the building capacity based on the 2013-2014 room use to determine the gross capacity. Room assignments are then adjusted to be consistent with educational specifications and to ensure that typical staffing considerations can be HCPSS 2013‐14 Elementary School Capacity Update Page 4
  • 5. Howard County Public School System Gilbert Architects accommodated within the building. No relocatable classrooms are used in determining building capacity per HCPSS Policy 6010. The graphic representations of floor plans in this report show what was collected for each school in 2013 on the left side and how calculations were made on the right side. The results from these calculations comprise the recommended capacity, accounting for all elementary school program requirements. The analysis followed these steps: Methodology Summary: 1. Verify current floor plan and room uses (2013-2014 school year). 2. Count rooms meeting minimum size of 660 SF (Gross capacity). 3. Exclude regional programs, core spaces, and utility areas from gross capacity. 4. Identify other educational program areas between 400-660 SF. 5. Assign related arts and electives to other educational program area rooms, as appropriate. 6. Subtract classrooms from Gross Capacity to satisfy any remaining needs for related arts and electives. 7. Distribute grades to remaining net capacity rooms, guided by current usage. 8. Calculate capacity based on staffing ratios per grade. Data Collection Process The data base information prepared by the HCPSS provided an invaluable wealth of information GAI could use in the evaluation of information for the elementary schools outlined herein. Computer aided drafting (CAD) floor plans provided by GAI and other architects were digitized into the HCPSS Geographic Information System (GIS) database and spatially adjusted, preserving dimensions and scale from the original file. Each school provided a diagram from which room uses were taken and entered as attributes in the GIS. Room usage and building layout were then checked in the field during visits to each school. Onsite changes were made using an iPad with the ArcGIS Collector application installed. This information was then re-checked using ArcGIS Desktop to verify the results against any other data provided by the school and as-built construction plans. GAI was provided with a published map file and data package for use in Arc Reader. Data was displayed on a color-coded map, with each room labeled by use category and area. The use of this technology and the data collection process completed by the HCPSS provided an accurate baseline for GAI to analyze the capacity of each of school. This system remains under HCPSS ownership for continued use by school planning staff and school administrators. The floor plans and capacity statistics in this report come from a GIS database. This system allows floor plan information to be maintained by multiple users in offices or school sites. As the backbone of the data collection process, the initiation of this system has been a valuable improvement to this study over previous capacity studies. Where in the past, difficult to use computer aided design (CAD) files were distributed between consulting architects and some staff but they were not easily accessed by other staff. The result of this project is that the HCPSS owns a centralized database of all building floor plans that can be accessed using web applications.

  • 6. Howard County Public School System Gilbert Architects Gross Capacity Room Count The building capacity for an elementary school is determined by the number of grade level classrooms available in the school that meet the minimum square footage requirements. Using the “HCPSS Guidelines Manual for Renovations and Modernizations of Existing Schools” adopted by the Board of Education in 2009, the minimum square footage for a kindergarten classroom is 750 SF. For grades 1-5, the minimum square footage for a classroom is 660 SF. These minimum square footage allowances include any support rooms, such as toilet rooms or storage rooms, which are accessed from the classroom. Any rooms that do not meet the minimum square footage requirements are determined to be undersized and are not counted toward capacity. To allow for any discrepancies in room sizes in the GIS database, for the purpose of this study we assumed a 3percent margin of error and assigned capacity if the room size met the minimum square footage as follows: Kindergarten: 750 SF less 3% = a minimum room size of 727.5 SF Grades 1-5: 660 SF less 3% = a minimum room size of 640.2 SF Minimum classroom square footage does not mean all classrooms are of minimum size. In fact, the average grade 1-5 classroom size found in this study is 748 SF and nearly all are over 660 SF (standard deviation is 80 SF). The risk of setting a higher minimum, such as 700 SF, is the loss of 145 capacity rooms, or over four schools worth of capacity. Schools that would be impacted by raising the minimum square footage to 700 SF, i.e. a net loss in capacity, include Cradlerock ES, Forest Ridge ES, and Guilford ES, as well as Swansfield ES and Talbott Springs ES. Undersized Rooms Rooms meeting these descriptions were not included in the net capacity room count:  Rooms below 660 SF in area.  Any educational program area such as art, music (vocal, instrumental), and the media center were not assigned capacity.  Computer and Gifted and Talented (GT) classrooms were not assigned capacity.  Support rooms, such as special education classrooms, English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), alternative education (Alt Ed), reading, math, speech, and occupational therapy/physical therapy (OT/PT) were not assigned capacity.  Regional and specialized programs (refer to Attachment A) were not assigned capacity. These rooms could be counted towards capacity if the program was ever relocated to another school. The capacity at that other school would be reduced to accommodate the regional program.  Building support rooms such as administration, cafeteria and kitchen, gymnasium, stage and mini auditoriums were not assigned capacity. Recreation and Parks Activities rooms were not assigned capacity.  Relocatable classrooms were not assigned capacity. Any classroom activities housed relocatable classrooms were assigned to rooms in the building for this study.  Rooms that will fulfill the expanded Pre-K needs of the new world class elementary education pilot program during the 2014-2015 school year are identified. The schools slated for this program are: o Bryant Woods ES o Phelps Luck ES o Running Brook ES o Stevens Forest ES o Talbott Springs ES Rooms with area between 400 SF and 660 SF are frequently used for educational programming and support spaces. The 1994 Ed Spec allows for many of these rooms to be of a smaller size but there are no specific minimum area recommendations identified in the HCPSS renovation guidelines for related arts rooms. HCPSS 2013‐14 Elementary School Capacity Update Page 6
  • 7. Howard County Public School System Gilbert Architects Based upon observed averages and the 1994 Ed Spec, this study makes the following specifications that the minimum square footage shall be:  >660 SF for art and vocal music  >or = to 400 SF for GT, instrumental music and computer lab (room) As educational programs continue to evolve through the use of technology, so does the design of spaces within the school to accommodate these new learning opportunities. Although a few elementary schools have an “activity room”, the inclusion of a large open space, “extended learning area,” or “commons area” is not recognized as part of the current HCPSS Elementary Ed Spec. These areas can host more social learning and collaboration‐based activities but are not fully developed as part of the elementary school curriculum. Therefore, allocating space within the building for this use, which would be sizable, is beyond the scope of this capacity study and was not considered. In this study these spaces are referred to “student work areas” to differentiate them from “staff work areas.” Accounting for Related Arts and Elective Programming In order to account for all of the related arts and elective programming, it was necessary in this report to develop a method that rationalizes the educational specifications and staffing ratios. While vocal music, art, and computer lab are staffed based on school enrollment, GT and instrumental music are staffed using anticipated (elective) participation. The methodology used in this report seeks to find the minimum for each type of program offered at a school. The staffing ratio used for art and vocal music was extended to GT and instrumental music for purposes of this calculation. Staffing allocations for related arts and elective programming are made according to approved ratios or participation. Since staff assignments are made based on projected enrollment, and not considering capacity utilization, there is an assumption that space will be found for all assigned teachers. This leads to space usage (efficiency) concerns. This study applies a staffing ratio for related arts and elective programming based on the number of appropriately-sized rooms within the building. For example, in a school with fewer than 28 K-5 teachers, the staffing ratios call for one teacher for art, computer lab*, vocal music, instrumental music (combined band/strings), and gifted and talented (GT). The criteria identified below are based on staffing ratios and typical participation for schools of each size. These factors are rationalized to the gross capacity of the school in classrooms with the following three templates: 1. Small building that has less than or equal to 30 gross capacity rooms 2. Medium building that has 31-35 gross capacity rooms and at least three additional rooms larger than 400 SF 3. Large building with greater than 36 gross capacity rooms and at least six additional rooms larger than 400 SF *Each elementary school is assigned a technology teacher although there may not be a dedicated classroom assigned for the program. Typically technology instruction is delivered in classrooms other than the computer lab. The approach used for identifying related arts and elective programming is summarized in the diagram on the next page. HCPSS 2013‐14 Elementary School Capacity Update Page 7
  • 8. Howard County Public School System Gilbert Architects Figure 1 ‐ Net Capacity Calculation Process Based upon the specified sizes of greater than 660 SF for art and vocal music and at least 400 SF for instrumental music, or GT and computer lab, room assignments were made in the building for the required related arts. Where ever possible, these requirements were met using rooms that were identified as being undersized to receive capacity for K-5 classrooms but were within the size requirements assumed herein for related arts or elective programs. If necessary, classrooms were subtracted from the gross capacity count to ensure all educational programs could be met. The first decision in assigning these classrooms was the number of gross capacity rooms. The staffing and participation formulas mostly break out into small and large schools. In the case of a small school of 30 gross capacity classrooms, five rooms are needed for related arts to cover potential staffing. Two must at least 660 SF for vocal music and art. Many art and music classrooms are obvious on the floor plan because they were built specifically for those uses. These would be difficult to convert to a K-5 classroom. Three must be at least 400 SF for instrumental music, GT, and computer lab. If such rooms are not available they are subtracted from the gross capacity. Where capacity rooms must be subtracted to account for GT or instrumental music, only the minimum is removed to meet the requirement. Once a school reaches 36 gross capacity classrooms twice the related arts component is needed to cover potential staffing. Some fall in between the small and large categories. The limiting factor was if two art and vocal music classrooms were used in 2013-2014. Otherwise, the school should be calculated as a small school.

The resulting proposed capacity is 424. Bellows Springs ES (BSES) 2013-2014 School Use Plan The 2013-2014 school year capacity for BSES was 762. The building has 40 rooms that qualify as capacity rooms (“gross capacity room count”), and seven that qualify as undersized rooms. These counts qualify BSES as a “large” building, requiring two capacity rooms each for art and vocal music, as well as two undersized classrooms each for instrumental music, GT, and computer labs. Capacity Study Use Plan Two existing resource rooms are counted for GT freeing up the two capacity rooms which are currently assigned to GT for classrooms. The strings room is counted for instrumental music and a resource room is counted for the second instrumental music. A capacity room was hosting technology is counted for the second vocal music room. The (2) existing art, (1) existing vocal music and (1) existing computer lab, as well as the existing strings and computer lab that are counted for the (2) instrumental music and the (1) capacity room that is counted for vocal music, are subtracted from the gross capacity room count. The result is 33 net capacity rooms. As depicted on the “Capacity Key”, 30 of the net capacity rooms were used as teaching stations in 2013-2014, and receive capacity based on their existing use by grade level. The net capacity room count includes three additional rooms (*) receiving capacity: two are assigned the grade (1-2) capacity of 19 students because they are near other grade (1-2) rooms. Two are assigned the grade (3-5) capacity of 25 students per room because of their proximity to similar rooms. The resulting proposed capacity is 726. Bollman Bridge ES (BBES) 2013-2014 School Use Plan The 2013 school year capacity for BBES was 663. The building has 37 rooms that qualify as capacity rooms (“gross capacity room count”), and only three that qualify as undersized rooms. Since there are not six undersized classrooms, BBES must be classified as a “medium” building, requiring one capacity room each for art and vocal music as well as one undersized room each for instrumental music, GT, and computer lab. Capacity Study Use Plan An existing undersized room is counted for the second computer lab. A reading room is counted as the second vocal music. The (2) existing art, (1) existing vocal, (1) existing instrumental music, (1) existing GT and (1) existing computer lab, as well as the second reading room that is counted for the (1) additional vocal music, are subtracted from the gross capacity room count.

  • 24. Elementary School Floor Plans 11”x17” floor plan graphics are attached to this document in a separate packet. These graphically represent the input and output of the study. Figure 3 ‐ Example of attached floor plan graphic Depicted on the left side of the floor plan graphic is the 2013-2014 school year usage. This information was collected from each school for this study. Slight changes may have occurred for the present school year. On the right side, the capacity calculation work is shown. Capacity rooms are outlined in blue. The nomenclature provided on the floor plans for each school depicts the grade level of the room and the capacity assigned to that room. For instance, a kindergarten classroom would be noted “Kindergarten (22).” The notation indicates that the room meets the required 750 SF area for a kindergarten and 22 is the assigned capacity of the room. Rooms meeting the 660 SF minimum area are assigned to other classrooms. For grades 1 and 2, the notation is, ”Grade 1 (19)” and “Grade 2 (19),” respectfully. For grades 3 through 5 the convention is also the same but the assigned capacity is shown as “(25).” Rooms that meet the minimum square footage for a classroom and are included in the net capacity room count are noted with an (*) as observed available capacity. Rooms were assigned to account for required number of related arts and elective programming as using the net capacity calculation process noted in- Net Capacity Calculation Process Figure 1 on page 8 and noted accordingly on the floor plans. This report is not recommending a change to the use of any specific room. Notes showing reassignments are shown to illustrate how that room was counted in the capacity calculation. A capacity key is provided to tabulate the proposed capacity of the school. HCPSS 2013‐14 Elementary School Capacity Update Page 24
  • 25. 2013-2014 Elementary School Capacity Summaries Tables 2 through 12 on pages 26 through 31 present detailed summary data for the capacity analysis. The following notations are used in these tables: CIP Capacity Elementary capacities presently reported in the current HCPSS Capital Improvement Program (CIP) in the FY2015 Capital Budget and other documents including the June 2014 Feasibility Study. Gross Capacity Rooms This measure is a count of all rooms meeting the minimum size of 660 SF. This count excludes regional programs, core spaces, and utility areas. Undersized Classrooms Undersized classrooms are identified as those core classrooms (classrooms serving grades K-5) that do not meet the square footage requirements set forth in the HCPSS “Guidelines Manual for Renovations and Modernizations of Existing Schools” dated February 2009 (i.e. a minimum of 750 SF for kindergarten and a minimum of 660 SF for grades 1-5). Undersized classrooms do not receive capacity, but may be used to accommodate related arts requirements if they are 400 SF or greater in size. Relocatable Classrooms A modularized building type that is not a permanent structure integrated as part of the main building. They are usually installed on temporary piers versus standard foundations. Although these structures may house general instruction and meet the minimum square footage requirements, they are not assigned capacity. The number of relocatable classrooms is provided for information only. Official 9/30/2014 Enrollments The official September 30, 2013 enrollment numbers for the 2013-2014 school year have been provided for reference. State Rated Capacity The State Rated Capacity (SRC) is the number of students that the Maryland Interagency Committee (IAC) or its designee determines that an individual school has the physical capacity to enroll and can be reasonably accommodated in a facility. The SRC and the actual and projected enrollments are used by the IAC’s Designees and local jurisdictions to establish the utilization of a facility. Utilization is a criterion used by the IAC in evaluating whether a particular school is overcrowded such that relief is needed and provision of additional space through a capital project for capacity may be warranted. All permanent instructional spaces in an elementary school are counted in the SRC. These spaces include typical classrooms as well as self - contained special education classrooms that are used by the students receiving special education services outside the general classroom setting for more than 60percent of the school day. The spaces that are not counted towards the SRC include spaces used for special subject areas and used by different groups of students such as resource rooms, physical education rooms, the library media center, etc. State or locally owned relocatable classrooms are not counted towards capacity except when music and art programs located in the relocatable are provided more than 50 percent of the school week, one permanent classroom for each subject shall be deducted from the total number of classrooms before calculating the SRC. The SRC for an elementary school classroom depends upon assignment. Pre-kindergarten is 20 students per classroom. Kindergarten is 22 students per classroom. Grades 1 to 5 are 23 students per classroom. Self-Contained Special Education classroom is 10 students per classroom HCPSS 2013‐14 Elementary School Capacity Update Page 25
