anchor Description
Projections indicated enrollment would exceed capacity for some of the elementary schools in the Bethesda-Chevy Chase and Walter Johnson clusters. Planning expenditures for a new elementary school were programmed in the out-years of the approved FY 2021-2026 CIP. An FY 2025 appropriation was requested to begin the planning for this new elementary school. Due to an overall decline in the elementary school enrollment in these two clusters, the expenditures were shifted to the outyears of the CIP. Due to continuous enrollment decline, and a recommended countywide elementary school boundary study, this project has been requested to be removed from the CIP.
