2027
253
2029
256

Revenue upside
At $47,147 per student in district revenue, the 7 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $330,029/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.
