District reports 1,548 headcount; staff flag potential state-driven funding cuts
Summary
Staff reported a district headcount of 1,548, a kindergarten cohort of 102 (district average ~123), and warned ODE asked agencies to prepare reduction plans of up to 5% tied to federal tax changes, which could affect SIA and Measure 98 allocations.
District staff presented the first enrollment report of the year, reporting a headcount of 1,548 and noting kindergarten enrollment at 102 compared with a district average near 123.
"Kindergarten class is at a 102," the Staff member said, and staff noted a smaller senior class and unexpected increases in other grades. The presentation indicated current staffing aligns with budget assumptions but staff said they do not plan to add personnel amid uncertainty.
On funding, the Staff member said ODE asked agencies on Oct. 1 to prepare reduction plans up to 5% because projected federal tax changes could reduce state revenues and downstream allocations. Staff said the district will review forecasts in November and December before making budget adjustments and that impacts could affect SIA and Measure 98 funding.
