Superintendent: district enrollment up, driven by kindergarten increase
Summary
Superintendent reported overall enrollment is up this year, attributing the increase mainly to a rise of six kindergarten students while some upper grades are flat or down slightly.
Superintendent (S2) presented an enrollment update, saying the district's numbers "are still consistent" but that this year's enrollment increase is mainly due to kindergarten: "we're up 6 kindergartners and and graduated a small senior class." She explained upper grades showed mixed patterns — some classes were flat, some down by one or two — and said the district will continue working to keep class sizes near board targets.
S2 said the board previously asked staff to focus on managing class sizes and that administrators are tracking enrollment by cohort (grade-to-grade) to understand where shifts occur. The superintendent noted potential incoming middle-school-aged students and said she expects more movement in the coming weeks that could slightly change those counts.
