Enrollment trend & projection
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of +75.0%/year, projecting from 2022's 84 students:
2023
147
2025
450
2027
1,379
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue upside
At $12,454 per student in district revenue, the 1,295 students projected to be gained by 2027 represent ≈ $16,127,930/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.
