District projects shift: traditional enrollment down while charter and scholarship participation rise
Summary
CFO Miss Jurimchek told the board the district projects a loss of about 398 traditional FTE but increases of roughly 263 FTE in charter schools and about 631 scholarship students, producing a net funded FTE increase of about 491 for FY 2026–27.
During the July 28 presentation, CFO Miss Jurimchek outlined enrollment changes that are reshaping the district's funding and staffing needs.
"Traditional district-operated schools are projected to decrease by 398 FTE compared to the 2025–26 fiscal year," Jurimchek said, while charter schools are projected to increase by approximately 263 FTE and scholarship participation is projected to increase by approximately 631 students. She summarized that overall funded FTE is projected to increase by about 491 students, but that the growth is concentrated in charters and scholarship programs rather than district-run schools.
Jurimchek said those composition shifts affect staffing allocations, school funding and facility utilization and that the district will monitor 5-day student counts to align positions with where students are actually enrolled.
