Summary
District officials reported enrollment of 1,942 students (down from ~2,029 last year) and an attendance goal to raise ADA from 93.7% last year to about 94.7% this year; administrators highlighted campus competitions that drive attendance.
A district official told trustees the district's current enrollment is 1,942 students, a decline from last year's snapshot figures. The official noted the district was "right at 22 months" at a prior snapshot and that the most recent snapshot shows an 88-student decrease versus last year.
The same official reviewed average daily attendance (ADA), reporting the district finished last year at 93.7% ADA and that the goal for the current year is approximately 94.7%. Staff highlighted campus competitions (naming Finley Oaks and I.W. Evans) as part of efforts to boost attendance. Board members acknowledged the update and thanked principals and staff for attendance-promotion efforts.
The enrollment and ADA figures were presented as informational; no policy change was proposed in the segment.
