2029
512

Revenue upside
At $13,685 per student in district revenue, the 12 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $164,220/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.
