The following should be considered as guidelines when determining the appropriate number of students in a class at each grade level:
Kindergarten-Grade 1 16-20
Grades 2-4: 18-22
Grades 5-8: up to 25
Grades 9-12: 25-30
The above reflect a “range” of class sizes across grade levels. Administrators must have the flexibility to make decisions based on a number of important factors that may fluctuate from year to year.
