Superintendent: early enrollment around 8,000; staff following up on no‑shows
Summary
Superintendent reported early enrollment counts for the first days of school — roughly 7,700 K–12 plus pre‑K attendees and a later bumped total cited as about 8,082 — and outlined outreach to reduce no‑shows through Labor Day.
Superintendent (Dr. Bridal) provided an early‑year enrollment update and routine policy notices. He said the first day recorded about 7,700 K–12 students and 141 pre‑K attendees, and later noted outreach reduced an initial 442 “no shows” by 213 to 229 as registration continued.
The superintendent reported staff had bumped enrollment figures later in the week, citing a figure read on the record as 7,938 and a grand total recited as 8,082. He said the division will continue phone and online outreach to families and expects additional registrations through Labor Day as families move or finalize school choices.
The superintendent also reminded the public that CCPS board policies and cost‑per‑pupil information are available online and in hard copy by request. Board members asked about follow‑up procedures for no‑shows and were told administrative staff are reaching out and using bus‑presence as one indicator that families are in session.
