New demographics study has the Navarro ISD DOUBLING in size Third grade to move into intermediate campus Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Geronimo) -The Navarro ISD is doing its part to create some much-needed elbow room at its elementary school. Interim Superintendent Dee Carter says the results of an updated demographic study have finally been released to the district. She says those results show a spike in the number of students that will be attending the local campus this upcoming school year. “It’s pretty stunning when you look at the numbers. We are well over 700 students at the elementary school now which serves grades prekindergarten through third grade currently. But well over 700 students and the demographics study projects that we may go to 855 children in grades pre-k through 3
for next year. We can not accommodate 855 children in that building. This year, we purchased and moved in two portable buildings which added four classrooms. So we added four classrooms at the elementary and we are more than full at that campus still and of course, the common spaces really get stressed as well even if we could bring in more portables to that building -- the cafeteria, the gym (etc.),” said Carter. Although she began anticipating these results a month ago with the district’s leadership team, Carter says these latest numbers only cemented a plan to move the entire third-grade class over to its intermediate campus.
