Revenue upside
At $17,037 per student in district revenue, the 2,249 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $38,316,213/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.
