Echo SD 5 reports rising waitlists; preschool enrollment opens April 8
Summary
Superintendent reported enrollment up slightly and waitlists rising (27 junior high, 24 elementary, 18 high school); preschool enrollment opens April 8 at 8 a.m., with nine preschool-promise slots reserved and in-district priority for Echo residents.
Superintendent (Speaker 1) told the board overall enrollment is up by one student and provided specific waitlist numbers: 27 students on the junior-high waitlist, 24 on the elementary waitlist and 18 on the high-school waitlist. "Wait list numbers continue to rise," the superintendent said and credited staff for tracking and communicating with families.
The superintendent announced preschool enrollment opens April 8 at 8 a.m. and said the district hosts nine preschool-promise slots that are filled by the preschool-promise program (Echo residents get first priority). The superintendent said the district intends to hold a lower in-district registration number initially to avoid overcrowding and will not exceed a temporary cap for the first weeks of school to manage class sizes.
