Enrollment trend & projection

Grade 12 went from 260 in 2021 to 230 in 2024 — over 3 years.
-11.5%

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

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of -5.1%/year, projecting from 2024's 998 students:

2025
947
2027
853
2029
768

≈ 230 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 $13,354 per student in district revenue, the 230 students projected to be lost by 2029 represent ≈ $3,071,420/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.
