Revenue upside
At $12,932 per student in district revenue, the 2,696 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $34,864,672/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.
