Enrollment trend & projection

111 in 2024
— over 3 years.
+20.7%
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +1.6%/year, projecting from 2024's 481 students:
2025
489
2027
504
2029
520
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $12,089 per student in district revenue, the 39 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $471,471/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.
