Cost and Area Comparison Per Student of the Public Elementary Schools in Texas Based on the Project Delivery Systems

Book Description
It has been shown that there exists a correlation between the cost of construction of elementary schools and the project delivery systems. Previous research showed that Competitive Sealed proposal contract method of construction is $4000 cheaper than the Construction Manager at Risk method of construction per student for elementary school construction in Texas. This research investigates the elements causing construction cost variation in elementary schools of Texas by comparing and contrasting the two forms of contract documents, CSP and CMR. Two schools were selected for the study, although the schools are technically in different regions of Texas, the geological record suggests that there is not much difference in the techniques used for foundation construction and hence a reasonable comparison is possible. A comparison was completed of the contract documents for two elementary schools. School A was built using CSP and School B using CMR. The two schools were built for about $13000 per student in line with A. N. Reinisch's findings for CSP contracts in Texas, but not CMR average costs. The two ISD's who supplied the documents were clearly concerned at cost control and appear to have managed this process. The earlier findings of a cost difference between CSP and CMR are not overturned by this study. Future studies involving a greater number of schools and the development of a central database are recommended.

A Comparative Study of Transportation Costs for a Four-day School Week and a Five-day School Week for Dougherty County Schools

Pages : 94
Book Description
This study demonstrates that the four-day school week is an alternative which the Dougherty County (Ga.) School System should consider in order to get the most out of its educational dollars. The school systems which have gone to the dour-day school week report savings not only in transportation costs but also in many other areas. And none of them report a decline in the quality of education. This study showed that Dougherty County Schools could save $ 181,256 each year by making the change. If this money were used for teachers' salaries, the system could hire ten to fifteen additional teachers with the same funds. Making the change to the four-day week could mean the difference in maintaining all of the present programs or having to cut back.
