Enrollment trend & projection
Grade 12 went from 139 in 2023 to
129 in 2024
— over 1 years.
-7.2%
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +27.1%/year, projecting from 2024's 979 students:
2025
1,244
2027
2,009
2029
3,245
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $12,886 per student in district revenue, the 2,266 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $29,199,676/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.
