🏛️ Federal Title I context

Title I Schoolwide eligible

≥40% FRPL — qualifies for Title I Schoolwide program

65.9%
FRPL rate — % of students who qualify for the federal Free or Reduced-Price Lunch program. This is the underlying federal income-eligibility signal Title I designations are computed from (ESEA Sec. 1113).
0% (no FRPL) 35% TA · 40% Schoolwide 100% (universal FRPL)

40-74% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. The district can use Title I funds across the whole school under federal Schoolwide Program rules.

Source: NCES Common Core of Data, free/reduced-price lunch eligibility. The actual Title I designation is a district decision and may differ from eligibility — but the federal eligibility math is what we show here. We don't claim to assert whether the district formally chose to enroll this school in Title I.

How does Florida grade a high school? →

A high school's grade is the percent of possible points across up to 11 components — English/math achievement and learning gains, science & social-studies achievement, the 4-year graduation rate, and College & Career Acceleration: the share of graduates who earned college credit (via AP, IB, AICE, or dual enrollment) or an industry certification. Letter cutoffs: A ≥ 62%, B ≥ 54%, C ≥ 41%, D ≥ 32%, F below.

Source: Florida Department of Education, School Grades, 2023-24. Graduation rate & College/Career Acceleration components reflect the prior cohort year, per FLDOE's grading model.

Enrollment trend & projection

Total enrollment went from 235 in 2022 to 487 in 2024 — over 2 years.
+107.2%

Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of +44.0%/year, projecting from 2024's 487 students:

2025
701
2027
1,453
2029
3,011

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.

Revenue upside

At $12,939 per student in district revenue, the 2,524 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $32,658,036/year in additional funding.

District total revenue ÷ enrollment, NCES F-33. Public funding largely follows enrollment, so a shrinking class is a recurring budget hit.
