What's the ideal size for high school?

AM update, G+T

The NYT story that was on line last night made today's front page, and a reader wrote in to mention Merideth Kolodner's coverage in the News.

The apparent under-enrollment in G+T classes stands in sharp counterpoint to consistent overcrowding in the city's schools; read more here, or read the complete report for yourself. The DOE's much-anticipated new, 5-year capital plan will be presented next month; how the Department plans to address overcrowding and underenrollment (in G+T and in universal preK, where thousands of seats remain open, until tomorrow) will be of primary interest.
