RE: Burnside Ridge
File No. H-2021-0070
Dear Meridian City Planners:
West Ada School District has experienced significant and sustained growth in student enrollment during the last ten
years. Based on current enrollment data specific to the area surrounding this proposed development, we estimate this
development consisting of 275 single-family units could house approximately 157 school aged children.Approval of this
application will affect enrollments at the following schools in West Ada School District based on attendance areas for the
2021-22 school year. For your information, included in this data is the number of approved lots and multi-family units
approved by this and other agencies.

Mary McPherson Elementary 442 675 3187 26 703
Victory Middle School 996 1000 4236 502 566

West Ada School District supports economic growth. Assuming the area's student generation rates remain the same and
the developments build out as projected,the capacity of the elementary schools identified above are projected to be
near maximum capacity upon completion of the 3187 approved lots.The middle school is also projected to be operating
at 100%full utilization upon the completion of the 4236 approved lots.These projections do not take into consideration
the impact of additional seats provided by education organizations outside of the West Ada School District, such as
charter schools, private schools and homeschools.
To meet the need for additional school capacity in this area one or more of the following may need to be accomplished:
• Transporting students to an alternate school with available classrooms.
• Attendance area adjustments if there is availability in a nearby school.
• Passage of a bond to build new schools to fit the enrollment needs.
• Portable classrooms placed on the property.
West Ada School District acknowledges and appreciates the developer for providing safe walkways, bike paths and
pedestrian access for our students. Future developments will continue to have an impact on the district's capacity.
Sincerely,
Marci Horner
Planning and Development Administrator
