The Signal - Santa Clarita Valley News - Local schools feel the squeeze: "In the William S. Hart Union High School District the maximum number of students at the high schools is 39 students per class, an increase of three students over last year, and the most classrooms can hold, said Vicki Engbrecht, assistant superintendent of educational services. Junior highs have a maximum of 38 students.

The Newhall district came up with a plan so that first and second-grade classes have 22 students, an increase by two students.

Third-grade classes have 24 students. Kindergarten classes have 30 students with two teachers."
