Enrollment trend & projection

Grade 12 went from 89 in 2021 to 92 in 2024 — over 3 years.
+3.4%

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

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of -7.6%/year, projecting from 2024's 488 students:

2025
451
2027
385
2029
329

≈ 159 fewer students by 2029 — a real revenue/relevance risk worth getting ahead of.
