The Chicago Public Schools determines whether a school
is overcrowded by dividing the number of students
in a school (the enrollment) by the number of students
that school can hold (the design capacity). An elementary
school is considered overcrowded if its enrollment
is 80 percent or more of the design capacity. Elementary
schools that operate at more than 100% of their design
capacity are considered severely overcrowded.
