Very interesting and informative especially the data you have put together. The other interesting item is how the addition of the new Savoy school will change the Prox B dynamics for Barkstall. As soon as the new school opens it will greatly reduce the number of Prox B students for Barkstall. Charles, thanks for this info and the update on the construction deadline.

I imagine next year (2011-2012) will be the first school year that some may not get into Carrie Busey, and it will probably be a couple families who a) live near the existing building off Kirby, and b) do not have any siblings in CB. However when the school shifts to the new location, I would imagine that fewer families near the current/old location will be interested in Carrie Busey. It kinda depends on what the FIC spells out during the school registration process next year. The architects (OWP/P) have set a deadline of beginning construction April 2011 and completing by July 2012.

I added a link to an older post with a Savoy new construction update. Looks like it's time for a current stats update as well. Thanks Bill, good points on new construction.
