District staff presented an enrollment and demographic update to the Roseville Area Schools Board on Nov. 12, reporting a net decline of 201 students in kindergarten through 12th grade compared with last year, alongside increases in pre-kindergarten and multilingual learners.
Maura Ryan, the district’s enrollment presenter, said the current kindergarten cohort is about 460 students while the district kindergarten average is 21.5 students per class versus a target of 22. “We all know that averages mean some classes are lower and some are higher,” Ryan said, noting three kindergarten classes currently exceed the district target and that staff work with principals and teachers to add supports or change scheduling.
