District enrollment down slightly; business office projects phased decline and auditors engaged
The Coos Bay School District business officer reported June enrollment and financial logistics to the board, describing a modest year-to-year decline and the district's fiscal approach to projected enrollment changes.

The business officer reported the district was down 19 students since the last board report and down 56 students compared with the prior year — roughly a 2% decline. The largest enrollment shifts included AYA (from 68 to 40), Madison (from 293 to 277) and Sunset (from 364 to 344). The junior high was reported at 397 compared with 422 the prior year.

The district's long-range enrollment model projects a 1–2% annual decrease tied primarily to lower birth rates and demographic trends; the business office said this trajectory is consistent with the district’s budget modeling. The draft budget used average daily funding figures and anticipated a decrease of 77 ADM for the next year, which staff estimated as roughly $800,000 in revenue reduction compared with the prior budget baseline.

The business office also noted the district’s auditors were on site and that the district would continue its contract with Ally Financial for another year of auditing services. No adverse audit findings were reported during the meeting.

Board members discussed how demographic trends and programmatic strengths might influence future enrollment and noted district efforts to attract families through strong programs and performance.
