Enrollment trend & projection

Grade 12 went from 72 in 2023 to 135 in 2024 — over 1 years.
+87.5%

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

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of +53.8%/year, projecting from 2024's 943 students:

2025
1,451
2027
3,433
2029
8,124

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

Revenue upside

At $11,616 per student in district revenue, the 7,181 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $83,414,496/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.
