Administrator reports kindergarten at 50, net loss of two students and $204,413 donation to CTE programming
Summary
An administrator told the PAYNESVILLE PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT board kindergarten enrollment is 50 (the budgeted target), the district had a net loss of two students last year, 19 students attend virtually, and a charitable fund donated $204,413 for career and technical education.
An administrator for the PAYNESVILLE PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT presented enrollment and fundraising details to the board, reporting kindergarten enrollment at 50 students — the number the district budgeted for next year — and a net district enrollment loss of two students over the past year.
The administrator said homeschool enrollment totals 72 families this year (down from a high of 78 the prior year) and that 19 students are enrolled in virtual-school programs. She explained those counts can include placements (for example, alternative-learning or care-and-treatment placements) that make year-to-year comparisons imperfect.
On donations, the administrator highlighted ongoing community support for athletics and programming from booster clubs and alumni groups. She identified a charitable fund allocation of $204,413 designated to support career and technical education programming and noted other donor-designated funds are routed to scholar awards and FFA plot utilities.
Board members asked clarifying questions and proceeded with routine approvals tied to budget sections informed by those enrollment figures. The administrator reminded the board that graduation is scheduled for May 22 and that further details would be shared by district staff.
