Method and limits
PDF date check: The official zoned K–8 PDF displays October 6 but records creation and modification on October 7 at 13:18:26 UTC (9:18:26 a.m. EDT). The Fundamental PDF records October 5 at 15:17:47 UTC (11:17:47 a.m. EDT). Both files were downloaded from the district links and inspected October 10. Read the metadata comparison and revision-history question. Metadata alone does not identify the capacity edit.
FacilityData references: Fundamental D2977:M2977; Sunset Hills D3005:M3005; TSMS D2975:M2975; Carwise D2883:M2883; Tarpon Springs Elementary D2972:M2972. Definitions: A1 and A8:Q8.
The FDOE reports page identifies May 2026 as the update date. The workbook’s source note describes district-reported FISH data. We do not present it as a new physical inspection or a guarantee of usable program seats.
The superintendent’s statement and the revised-plan timeline are compared in the decision history. The quote is from Bay News 9, October 6; the PCS meeting schedule dates the workshop to October 6, and the PCS FAQ schedules the vote for October 13.
Evidence standards
Published plans and estimates remain attributed to the district. Proposed capacities are not enrollment forecasts.
FISH workbook values have cell references. Calculations show inputs and do not establish educational feasibility.
Community reports are attributed and verification gaps stated. Questions identify documents still needed.
