Summary

Superintendent Willis reported the district is 'up 53 students from last year' (not yet official), noting this would be the first enrollment increase in about 25 years; the superintendent also highlighted board completion of governance training.

In his superintendent’s report, Mr. Willis told the board the district was showing an encouraging enrollment trend. “It is not official yet, but as of right now, we are up 53 students from last year,” he said, describing the figure as preliminary but notable. Willis framed the uptick as the first enrollment increase in roughly 25 years and presented it as a positive sign for district outreach and programming.

Willis also acknowledged board members’ completion of Scribe Board Governance Improvement Act training and thanked them for participating. He positioned the enrollment news as early evidence that resident outreach and district promotion may be having an effect, and said staff will continue monitoring official ADM counts that drive state funding and earned teacher units.
