Prospect Heights reviews 2025–26 enrollment and staffing plan; net +1.0 FTE and projected savings
Summary
Administration presented June 12 enrollment projections and a staffing plan that applies section reductions, reassignments and replacements; the district reported a net change of +1.0 FTE and a projected net budget impact of −$171,136 for 2025–26.
The Board received an informational memo prepared by Don Angelaccio on June 12 summarizing enrollment as of June 4, 2025, projections by grade through 2028 and staffing implications for 2025–26. The presentation showed district‑wide enrollment clustered around 1,400 students with per‑grade projections and several planned FTE adjustments across elementary and middle grades.
Key operational decisions embedded in the staffing plan include reduction of one Kindergarten section (applied earlier), an additional reduction of 1.0 FTE in first grade with that FTE shifted to an interventionist position at Eisenhower, a decision not to refill one special-education retirement (reducing 1.0 FTE), replacement of four certificated staff resignations, and other shifts that produce a net increase of 1.0 FTE and a stated net budget impact (savings) of $171,136.
The memo included a grade‑by‑grade cohort survival table and sectioning averages used to recommend sections and class‑size guidelines. Administration said the district has received more than 97% of expected registrations and will monitor summer move‑ins/move‑outs before finalizing staffing placements and class assignments for August start.
