162 in 2024
— over 3 years.
+19.1%

If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +0.3%/year, projecting from 2024's 648 students:
2025
650
2027
653
2029
656
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $13,391 per student in district revenue, the 8 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $107,128/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.
