District reports enrollment gains and high mobility; homeschool-plus has waiting list
Summary
Staff told the board brick-and-mortar enrollment is roughly 820 students and the district is ahead of last year by about 250 students systemwide; speakers also described a high mobility rate and a homeschool-plus program with a waiting list.
District administrators reported enrollment and mobility trends during the board meeting, telling trustees the district had roughly 820 students in brick-and-mortar programs and that year-over-year headcount was higher than last year by about 250 students overall.
Myron (an administrator) provided a morning headcount that the district is seeing growth across levels: the presentation said the elementary, middle and high school levels each showed gains compared with the prior year (speakers cited approximate increases of +100 elementary, +90 middle and +70 high school). Administrators also noted high mobility: the meeting packet showed a number of exits and entries year-to-date (the presenters described some students leaving for tribal or out-of-state schools and others entering).
The board discussed the homeschool-plus program: speakers said homeschool-plus was full with a waiting list (a number of about 18 was mentioned during discussion) and that placement decisions are managed by a staff member who assesses urgency and student circumstances.
Board members asked for more granular tracking and thanked Lindsay for work keeping the mobility and enrollment tallies.
