PrintThe headline above summarizes the last part of the project. Based on the analyses already carried out, and any other analyses required to support your answer, locate a new high school in Centre County.
As a minimum, you should use the editing tools (Edit – Create, Figure 7.12) to add a school to the highSchools layer and create a map of the new school and what the new school's associated district would be. You should insert this map, together with a description of how you arrived at it, into your Project 7 write-up. Note that school districts are always made up of a contiguous collection of townships and/or boroughs, and that the centreCountyCivilDivisions layer shows these.
Deliverable
Insert into your Project 7 write-up a map and other details of your proposal for a new high school and associated district, including an estimate of the number of school-aged children in each zone, arguments for and against the particular location and a map showing the new district boundaries you are proposing, possible problems with your analysis, maps, and explanations of any analysis carried out to support your decision-making. You should also calculate the road travel cost-weighted distance allocation zone associated with each school and show your results in a map (or maps).
