Enrollment trend & projection
Grade 12 went from 260 in 2021 to
254 in 2024
— over 3 years.
-2.3%
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +0.8%/year, projecting from 2024's 1,182 students:
2025
1,191
2027
1,211
2029
1,230
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $12,261 per student in district revenue, the 48 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $588,528/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.
