Staff reported the district lost about 173 qualifying students in the district’s unduplicated pupil percentage (UPP) count, which translates into an estimated $500,000 loss in one year and roughly $1.5 million across the multiyear projection used for budgeting. Staff said they are conducting outreach to families to increase form completion before the next reporting window.
