Superintendent Kerhoulas told the board the district now expects a decline of 53 students this year instead of the budgeted 100, with PK–12 enrollment estimated at 7,228, and described implications for staffing and budget planning.

Superintendent Kerhoulas told the Port Huron Area School District Board on Oct. 10 that the district is now estimating a smaller enrollment decline than was budgeted for the 2025–26 year.
