Plans for Our Growing Enrollment

More Students = More Needs The Wayzata School Board and administration are in the midst of planning for the district’s growing resident student population. New housing developments, increasingly larger classes moving from the middle schools to Wayzata High School and the recent addition of state-funded, all-day Kindergarten beginning in the fall of 2014 are impacting the district’s facility needs for the future. Wayzata Public Schools Resident Student Population is Growing… More Capacity is Needed The demand to attend Wayzata Public Schools has never been greater. The district’s K-12 resident student enrollment is anticipated to increase twice as fast in the next 10 years as it has in the past decade. This growth and need for more capacity is due to:

• More births and students moving into the district

• More housing—1,200 new homes

have been built in the district over the past four years and at least another 1,600 new homes are expected to be built in the next four years within the district boundaries, primarily in the cities of Plymouth, Corcoran, Maple Grove and Medina

Demand for Our Schools Pulte Homes advertises Wayzata Schools at their Willows development located in Plymouth. New housing developments are booming within the boundaries of the Wayzata School District with at least another 1,600 homes projected to be built in the next four years. The Wayzata School Board and administration are in the midst of planning for the district’s growing resident student population.
