If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +0.3%/year, projecting from 2024's 2,670 students:

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $11,862 per student in district revenue, the 40 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $474,480/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.
