Our firm performs demographic analysis for public school districts. We help determine locations for new buildings, project enrollments for 10 years, and analyze student populations. We help districts redraw attendance boundary lines more accurately and can help with making bus routes more efficient. We can work with school district administrators, school boards, or parent groups who would like more information about their school district.

For the last five years my team has performed in-depth demographic analysis for school districts around the country. We offer customized services for every school district’s budget.

We have saved districts thousands of dollars by suggesting ways to reduce expenses and improve efficiency. In one district, we found ways to reduce bus transportation costs of at least 35 percent. We also have help make realigning attendance boundaries easier. We serve as an independent and unbiased consultant to school districts and have a high-quality staff who can perform detailed GIS analysis, online research, and specialized studies.
