Abstract	The goal of this study was to determine the feasibility of merging into community unit school districts in an area encompassing seventeen elementary and four high school districts. The districts are suburban in nature and are of various sizes and shapes. They are all caught, or are about to be caught, in a "dizzying" increase in enrollment and are searching for solutions to meet the total educational needs of their rapidly growing areas. The study includes enrollment projections for all school districts through the use of continuation factors. It also gives a summary statement and projection graph estimating a high, median, and low enrollment for each district by September, 1975. Financial information collected shows a great disparity in the taxable wealth of the va~ious districts. This disparity in turn reflects a sharp contrast in the total exp~nditures per pupil, and some of the problems that are manifested therefrom. Several options or alternatives for new school district o~gani zational structures are proposed by the author which he believes will lead to a more efficient and effective operation of school districts in Southern DuPage County, Illinois. On the basis of his enrollment and financial projections, he believes that all of the proposed administrative alignments are defensible in terms of a sound educational program and will eliminate the "hodge-podge" geographical configurations of school districts that presently exist. The study is a survey report which illustrates an encouraging omen on the part of school districts to focus on some of their mutual concerns.
