Enrollment trend & projection

Grade 12 went from 68 in 2021 to 74 in 2024 — over 3 years.
+8.8%

Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of -4.0%/year, projecting from 2024's 311 students:

2025
298
2027
275
2029
253

≈ 58 fewer students by 2029 — a real revenue/relevance risk worth getting ahead of.

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.

Revenue at risk

At $13,935 per student in district revenue, the 58 students projected to be lost by 2029 represent ≈ $808,230/year in funding at risk.

District total revenue ÷ enrollment, NCES F-33. Public funding largely follows enrollment, so a shrinking class is a recurring budget hit.
