VII.b. Davis Demographics & Planning, Inc., Enrollment Projection Update
Recommended Motion:
Receive student demographic planning report and enrollment update for 2020-21.
Rationale:

The Davis Joint Unified School District has contracted with Davis Demographics & Planning, Inc. (DDP) to update and analyze demographic data relevant to the District’s facility planning efforts since the 2005-06 school year. 

Demographic planning is used to make budgeting, staffing, programming, and facility use decisions for the future. The three main factors affecting future enrollment are birth rates, local housing growth, and mobility of resident students. Current year assumptions include considerations related to the pandemic.

These projections show that DJUSD will continue to have a declining resident student population. Over the years, DJUSD has been able to mitigate the impact of the decline from an increase in non-resident (out of district) student enrollment, maintaining a fairly level enrollment over the last 10 years. Enrollment is still expected to decline overall in the next five years.

A PowerPoint presentation, summary report and any other attachment(s) will be provided closer to the meeting date. 

 
Financial Impact:
No specific impact. Possible projections for potential changes (+/-) in LCFF revenues, student facilities needs, and staffing to support student enrollment levels.
Attachments:
a. Davis Demographics 2020-21 Presentation
b. Davis Demographics 2020-21 Summary Report
VII.c. DJUSD Bond Program Project Update
Recommended Motion:

Receive an update from Deputy Superintendent Matt Best and Capital Operations Executive Director David Burke staff regarding the DJUSD Bond Program projects.

Rationale:
In June 2018, the DJUSD Board of Education approved a comprehensive Facilities Master Plan, which outlined the facilities’ needs of the District. In November 2018, voters approved Measure M, a $150 million facilities bond to fund much of the DJUSD Facilities Master Plan. In addition, another $76 million from other sources make up the entire DJUSD Bond Program. 

The Board of Education prioritized several signature projects which include: new science labs at Emerson/Da Vinci Junior High School, an Early Childhood Learning Center at Korematsu Elementary, four new Elementary Multi-purpose Rooms, a new Tech Hub at Da Vinci High School, and a new STEM, Aquatic Center, and three CTE facility projects at DSHS. The Board will receive an update on the status of all signature projects. 
 

In addition, the Board will receive an update about several Master Plan processes including a Tree Master Plan, Solar Master Plan and Technology Master Plan.
