DOMINICAN UNIVERSITY
Description
Spatial Systems Associates was asked by Dominican University to assist in the analysis of data and production of cartographic product related to Loyola Academy in Wilmette, Illinois. Loyola Academy is a secondary school that was attempting to understand the dynamics of its changing demographics and student population. Loyola Academy draws students from a variety of "feeder" schools in the region. Loyola was interested in understanding where students were coming from and, using census data, the potential for being able to maintain student enrollment for the foreseeable future. This data would also be used to target marketing to certain neighborhoods. Spatial produced a series of map products that Dominican University incorporated into their report for Loyola Academy. Map products included:
- A map depicting the location of Loyola Academy, the location of feeder schools, and the home location of students currently enrolled in Loyola Academy
- A map depicting where in the region large percentages of families with children under five were located
- A map depicting where in the region large percentages of families with children aged five to seventeen were located
- Where within the region large percentages of families with a Hispanic background lived
- Where within the region significant percentages of Catholic population resided
- Where within the region large percentages of families with Catholic high school age children resided
This analysis and the resulting maps were used extensively in the report prepared by Dominican University dramatically assisted in the understanding of Loyola Academy management regarding the continued viability of the school.
