Enrollment trend & projection

Grade 12 went from 552 in 2021 to 464 in 2024 — over 3 years.
-15.9%

Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of -2.4%/year, projecting from 2024's 1,952 students:

2025
1,904
2027
1,813
2029
1,725

≈ 227 fewer students by 2029 — a real revenue/relevance risk worth getting ahead of.

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.

Revenue at risk

At $14,581 per student in district revenue, the 227 students projected to be lost by 2029 represent ≈ $3,309,887/year in funding at risk.

District total revenue ÷ enrollment, NCES F-33. Public funding largely follows enrollment, so a shrinking class is a recurring budget hit.
