Enrollment trend & projection
Grade 12 went from 347 in 2021 to
421 in 2024
— over 3 years.
+21.3%
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +3.5%/year, projecting from 2024's 1,887 students:
2025
1,952
2027
2,090
2029
2,237
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $13,146 per student in district revenue, the 350 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $4,601,100/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.
