The base year for this analysis is 2015 and the horizon year is 2045. The goal is to document the 2015 enrollment and in a future report, use that data, along with regional population forecast and other factors, to compute estimates of enrollments in the 2045 horizon year. The school enrollment data was compiled for four different categories of education. The categories include public schools (pre-kindergarten through twelfth grades), private schools (pre-kindergarten through twelfth grades), vocational-technical schools, and university and college education. The information was collected for the above-mentioned types of academic institutions within the OCARTS area (see Figure 1), which includes Oklahoma and Cleveland Counties and portions of Canadian, Logan, McClain, and Grady Counties.

To obtain base year enrollment data, the MPO staff used several sources, including the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, the National Center for Education Statistics, and local news articles. METHODOLOGY FOR GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS (GIS) COMPONENT One of the primary components of the past 2010 school enrollment project was the creation of a geodatabase containing school districts and school feeder boundaries. These same boundaries were used for the 2015 update. The schools, colleges, and universities that had been address-matched in the 2010 update were used for 2015. In some cases, additional new facilities were added and closed facilities were deleted. PUBLIC SCHOOL ENROLLMENT Base data for public school enrollment in 2015 for pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade were obtained in large part from the Oklahoma State Department of Education and various other sources. Supplemental data was obtained from Google Maps. Using this information, a database containing the school district, city, school name, grades, enrollment, and district enrollment for each public school was created (see Figure 2 and Table 1). New schools were added between 2010 and 2015. In some cases, the grades of schools were designated, or reclassified to adapt to population growth in the school district. Oklahoma City Public Schools also added charter schools within that same time period.
