Superintendent outlines enrollment projection method, district to push kindergarten sign-ups
Summary
Superintendent Bare told the Budget Committee the district uses current enrollment rolled up by grade and an average to project kindergarten, and that staff will intensify outreach to enroll incoming kindergarten students this spring.
During questions, Director Tawari asked how the district forecasts enrollment for the coming year. Superintendent Bare explained the district "roll[s] up current enrollment for all grades except kindergarten," and added that kindergarten projections are based on an average of recent years. Bare said the district will "do a big push in the coming weeks to get incoming kindergarten students enrolled" and noted early indications that the incoming kindergarten class could be large.
Committee members were asked to review the materials and follow up with staff before the May meeting if they had questions. The enrollment forecast method will inform staffing and budget assumptions for FY25/26.
