This article is from KAAL news from my home town Austin, MN. In this article they talked about how they are one of three districts in Minnesota that are facing a challenge because of student population growth. They talk about not having room for all of the students, and that they have 71 actual classrooms and they are using 79 classrooms this year, using 8 spaces which were not designed to be "classrooms". They have many decisions they have to make in the upcoming years.. "From reconfiguring grade levels within our buildings to adding onto buildings to building a new building or buildings," said Mark Stotts. I found this to be very interesting because I went to school in Austin and we didn't have any problems with classroom sizes or not having enough classrooms. In our school district we have 4 public elementary schools, 1 public middle school, and 1 public high school. My sister currently attends the middle school, and she said they are already expanding the school, so they can fit all of the children.
