66 in 2024
— over 3 years.
+10.0%

If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +3.9%/year, projecting from 2024's 293 students:
2025
305
2027
329
2029
355
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $15,255 per student in district revenue, the 62 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $945,810/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.
