Interim Superintendent David Krenz told the Albert Lea School Board on March 17 that the district has experienced a steady enrollment decline "dating back to 2018-19," a trend he said has reduced revenue for the district.
Krenz said federal funds received during the 2020 COVID pandemic were used in part "to offset some of the staffing reductions." He did not provide a specific enrollment or revenue figure during the update. The update was presented during the board's regular meeting at Brookside Education Center and followed approval of the meeting agenda and consent items.
