Red Lake reports rising enrollment and details supports to keep seniors on track
Summary
Principal Shelley Frederickson told the board the official Oct. 10 enrollment count was 1,510, an increase from last year; she outlined credit‑completion numbers for the class of 2025 and described extended‑day and homework‑help programs to support students at risk of not graduating.
Principal Shelley Frederickson reported to the board that the district’s official October 10 enrollment count was 1,510 students, an increase over the prior year that translated into additional state/impact aid revenue for the district.
Frederickson said the class of 2025 includes 109 first‑time seniors and 38 students who are second‑ or third‑year seniors. She provided a credit‑status breakdown: 24 students need fewer than seven credits, five need up to 10 credits, and roughly 79 students need more than 10 credits to graduate. The principal said the district offers extended‑day ALC programming (3:30–5:00 p.m.) and homework‑help to help students regain eligibility and complete required credits.
She also reviewed athletic eligibility procedures aligned with the Minnesota State High School League and described weekly grade checks, a color‑coded probation system, and communication practices that notify coaches and families when students’ academic status changes.
Why it matters: Rising enrollment affects district revenue and planning; the graduation breakdown identifies students at risk and the supports the district plans to use to help them finish on time.
