    Revised Educational Impact Statement:The Proposed Co-location ora New Public Charter School, Success AcademyCharter School, with Existing Schools in the Brandeis Educational Campus

    REVIS rON release date: June 6, 2011Dennis M _ Wa/colt. Chancellor

    REVISED EDUCATIONAL IMPACT STATEMENT:The Proposed Co-location of a New Public Charter School,Success Academy Charter School, with Existing SchoolsLouis D. Brandeis High School (03M470), The UrbanAssembly School for Green Careers (03M402), The GlobalLearning Collaborative (03M403), Innovation Diploma Plus(03M404), and Frank McCourt High School (03M417) in theBrandeis Educational CampusI. Summary of Proposal

    In an Educational Impact Statement ("E[S") posted on December 17,201 L the New York City Departmentof Education ("DOE") proposed to open a new public charter school, Success Academy Charter School I("SACS"), and site it in the Brandeis Educational Campus, Building M470 r'M470" or the "BrandeisCampus"), located at l45 West 8 4 1 h Street, New York, NY 10024 in Community School District 3. SACSwould be co-located in M470 with Louis D. Brandeis High School (03M470, "Brandeis High School"),The Urban Assembly School lor Green Careers (03M402,Green Careers"), The Global LearningCollaborative (03M403, "Global Learning"), innovation Diploma Plus (03M404,Diploma Plus"), andFrank MCCOll I t High School (03M'417. "Frank rV[cCourC). A "co-location" means that two or more ScllOOIorganizations are located ill the same building and may share common spaces like auditoriums,gymnasiums, and cafeterias. The proposal was approved by the Panel Ior Educational Policy ("PEP") onFebruary I,2011.Tbe DOE has now revised this proposal. The revised ElS:

    updates current enrollment at aLI schools to reflect the 20 I 0-20 I l Audited Register (which was notyet available at the time the original EIS was published);

    changes the projected enrollment for Green Careers and Global Learning to conform to budgetregister project ions lor ~O 11-20 I 2.2 and therefore also changes the total number of studentsprojected to be served by all schools and the projected building utilization rate:

    includes additional information about the programs and partnerships of the high schools in theBrandeis Educational Campus;

    includes additional information on the impact ofthe proposal on future elementary school studentsin District 3;

    provides detailed projections of the proposed grade levels and estimated enrollments of all sixorganizations in M470 over a 5 year period:

    includes updated facilities information and;includes information about a YABC program that operates in the M470 building.

    I SACS has since received permission from its authorizer to change its name to Upper West Success Academy. Because theoriginal EIS used the SACS name, this revised EIS uses that name as well.L Budget register projections are the official enrollment projections tor the following academic year, and provide the basis forthe financial budget of each school based on the number of students in total, and the 1 1 1 1 1 1 l b e r of students requiring IndividualizedEducation Plans ("'lEI's") and English Language Learner CELL") services. These projections were finalized recently.

    Green Careers. Global Learning, and Frank McCourt will continue to phase in one gradc each year untilthey serve 425-450 students in grades nine through twelve. Diploma Plus will continue to serve 225-250students in grades nine through twelve.SACS will open with kindergarten and first grade in 2011-20 I1, and will add one grade each year until itserves grades kindergarten through live. SACS would serve approximately 80 students per grade orapproximately 480-490 students at full scale.In addition to the schools, there is a Living fo r tile Young Family through Education ("LYFE") center illM470. Lyre centers support pregnant and parenting students enrolled in a DOE school by providingchildcare and referral services. Social workers assigned to each or the LYFE centers provide social andemotional support for young parents io 1:1tc' il ilatctheir acadcmlc progress as well as their progress ,ISparents. The LYFE progcarn Opl.:I 'Ull ':S inde.pcmJently of the high schools in the shared building. The LYF[program serves students in those schools, bu t ulse students in other schoois in the surrounding communi tyas well. The proposed co-toearion orSACS would not impact the LYFE Center.The Brandeis Campus also contains a school-based health clinic, St. Luke's, operating as an extensionclinic or a hospital group. There is also one half-size room allocated to School Safety and one hal f-sizeroom allocated to Tile Grand Street Settlement, a Community Based Organization ("CBO") that works withat-risk kids. There will be no impact on the L'rTE Center. the St. Luke's school-based health clinic, SchoolSafely or Grand Street Settlement as a result of this proposal.In 201.0-20 Il and prior years, there was also a Young Adult Borough Center CY ABC") program in theM470 building. Young Adult Borough Centers are evening academic programs designed to meet the needsof high school-age students who might be considering dropping out because they are behind or becausethey have adult responsibilities that make attending school in the daytime difficult. Students graduate witha diploma from their home school after they have earned all of their credits and passed all of the requiredexams while attending the Y ABC. Students who are registered in a Y ABC program remain assigned, for allaccountability measures, to their sending school. The YABC in M470 primarily served students who wereenrolled at Brandeis. Enrollment has been declining with the ongoing phase-out of Brandeis, and theYABC program in M470 is being discontinued due to that declining demand. The YABC program doesnot have permanent space allocation in M470, and thus the decision to close this location ofthe programwas not affected by the proposal to site a new school in the building. There arc other YABC centers inManhattan which have sufficient capacity to serve students who might otherwise have been served in theBrandeis Campus location. i\ l ist of Y ABC centers in New York City is available athttp.:/lsehools.nyc.go.vfNRJrdonlyres/ECC3IA/IF -91 L2-4FB7-9CBA-D O I DC696F3 l5/93907/YoungAdultBoroughCeuterLocations20 1020 12.pdfThe DOE would renovate four rooms adjacent to the current cafeteria to create a multi-purpose space to beused as a cafeteria and gymnasium by SACS students, who would be or elementary school age. These fourrooms arc available to be converted because they arc currently too noisy Ior use as classroom space. Thesefour rooms are currently used for storage, including the storage of Brandeis High School's student records,which would be relocated to a new location in the basement-level floor of the Brandeis Campus.There are no other proposed uses for the building.As described ill more detail in the Enrotlmcnt, Capacity, Utilization Report, which is available ath, ttp:llsourcc.nvcsca,orglpd17capitalplanlZ009-IOlBS 2009' 20 lO.pdf , a building's target utilization rate iscalculated by dividing the aggregated enrollment of all the school organizations in the building: by theaggregated "target capacities" ofthose organizations. Each school organization'S "target capacity" iscalculated based upon the scheduled use of individual rooms as reported by principals during an annualfacilities survey, the DOE's goal classroom capacities (which are aspirational targets lower than the UFT

    The siting or SACS may have an impact on tile enrollment at these other District] schools i studentschoose to attend SACS instead of these schools. 1I> 2015-2016. SACS will serve 4W-490 students inkindergarten through linll grade. If all 480-490 students come from District], there could be a decrease inenrollment at other District 3 elementary schools (enrollment lost to S.t\CS may also be offset by an overallincrease in the number of District J students).

    B. SchoolsThe proposed siting of SACS in the Brandeis Campus would create 480-490 additional high-qualitykindergarten through fifth grade seats in District 3. The proposed co-location of SACS would increase thetotal number o r students enrolled in the Brandeis Campus by approximately 180-190 students in 2011-2012. and by approximately 480-490 kindergarten through fifth grade students through 2015-2016. TheDOE would continue monitoring enrollment and capacity in the Brandeis Campus as SACS enrolls eachnew grade level.SACS will enroll approximately 28 students per class section. while the target class size in DOE schoolsfor Kindergarten through third grade is 20 students. Thus, we expect SACS enrollment will beapproximately L40";(, of target (as calculated by the DOE's class size standards) fix its space allocation inthose grades.If this revised proposal were approved, there would be sufficient space to accommodate SACS and all ofthe high schools in the Brandeis Campus pursuant to the Citywide instructional Footprint (the "Footprint") .Please visit the DOE's website to access the Footprint, which guides space allocation and use in Cityschools: hlto:llschoQ Is.l\vc.g(w/KfRil'doI11~'re!i/8CF30[-'4I-I) E25-Jl.C30-92DE-731 f ) 4 9919FC . :3 /&763J /NVCOOE Lnstrucliol\aI ('ootpl'illt Pini l l9 ') IOTNT.pdf.The Footprint sets forth the baseline number of rooms that should be allocated to a SCllOOIbased on thegrade levels served by the school and number of classes per grade. "For existing schools. the Footprint isapplied to the current number of classes and class size a school has programmed and is confirmed by awalk-through of the: building by the B'Orougb Directorof Space Planning and the schoolsprincipal. Forelementary s ch ee js s er vin g grades kindergarten through five (and for al l pre-kindergarten programs). theFootprint assumes tbat classes are setf-courained. Therefore. the Footprint allocates one full-size classroomfor each gcueralcducatlon or CrT section nnd a full-size or half-size classroom to accommodate each SCspecial education section served by the school. In addition to these rooms. schools serving grades K-5receive an allocation 0[" cluster Of specialty classrooms proportionate to the number of students enrolled.These spaces can be used at the principal's discretion 1~1rpurposes such as art and/or music instruction,among other things.For grades 6-12 the Footprint assumes that students move from class to class and that classrooms should beprogrammed at maximum efficiency. The Footprint allocates one full-size classroom for each generaleducation or Collaborative Team Teaching section and a full-size or half-size classroom to accommodateeach Self-Contained special education section served by the 5ch.001.
