District staff told the board that current enrollment stood slightly below the district’s bed‑stay numbers but that registrations are continuing. "Our overall enrollment, 19 40 as compared to, where we are on bed stay, 19 78," a staff member said. The presenter said transitions during the first weeks of school and ongoing registrations explain the gap and that principals will present opening reports after the first week.

Staff also provided ELL (English language learner) and special-education counts as of the meeting: the high school needed an additional 0.1 FTE in ELL staffing, which staff said could be funded from grant money. A comparison of similar counts from the prior year showed totals close to last year’s bed-stay numbers. The board discussed the figures and staff said they would provide updated enrollment slides and opening reports after initial student placements stabilize.
