Trustees press administration for clearer enrollment trend data as PSJA projects decline

Several trustees pushed the administration for more granular enrollment and transfer data as the district prepares its 2026–27 budget. Assistant Superintendent Becky Gonzales and enrollment liaison staff cited a projected enrollment of 28,200 (a decline of about 850 from the prior year) and said registration stands near 28,400 but not all registrants appear in attendance counts. Trustees asked for five‑year loss figures and the destinations of departing students; administration said recruitment efforts include targeted home visits, liaisons, public relations campaigns (billboards, commercials, community events), expanded virtual options and outreach to new housing developments.
