Enrollment trend & projection
Grade 12 went from 493 in 2021 to
509 in 2024

+3.2%
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +0.5%/year, projecting from 2024's 2,014 students:

2,024
2027
2,045
2029

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $12,008 per student in district revenue, the 53 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $636,424/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.
