Summary

Superintendent Erika Bare reported enrollment had dropped to 1,410 and staff will investigate where students have enrolled (homeschool, online) to identify opportunities to recapture students and support being a destination district.

Superintendent Erika Bare told the board the district's enrollment is holding steady overall but recently dipped to 1,410 students; she said staff reported the district submitted an enrollment update to the state to ensure funding aligns with current pupil counts.

Bare said administrators are working to identify where students who live in the district are enrolling — including homeschooling and online options — and will compile that transfer-destination information to present to the board so the district can plan ways to "recapture" students and enhance its offerings to be a destination district.
