offered ECC is very important to the community for both educational and economic

development reasons and should not be squeezed out because of space needs

when necessary, but all support the plan

Enrollment and Growth Data Historical

Census Data compared to Enrollment Data Between 2000 and 2010, the 0 to 19 year old

population, in the Linn and Johnson County areas encompassing our district grew 39%

In that same time, our student population grew from 3, 332 to 4,468 or 34%

Conclusion: With the most recent census data and enrollment data,

CCSD seems to mirror the 0 to 19 general population growth—although CCSD grows at a slightly lower rate.
