If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +10.2%/year, projecting from 2024's 671 students:

2029

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $13,366 per student in district revenue, the 417 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $5,573,622/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.
