Enrollment trend & projection

If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +4.4%/year, projecting from 2024's 737 students:
2025
769
2027
838
2029
913
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $18,906 per student in district revenue, the 176 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $3,327,456/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.
