Enrollment trend & projection
Grade 12 went from 82 in 2021 to
96 in 2024
— over 3 years.
+17.1%
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +1.9%/year, projecting from 2024's 990 students:
2025
1,008
2027
1,046
2029
1,085
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $14,137 per student in district revenue, the 95 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $1,343,015/year in additional funding.
District total revenue ÷ enrollment, NCES F-33. Public funding largely follows enrollment, so a shrinking class is a recurring budget hit.
