A parent's read

  • Where graduates go, as the school itself publishes it. Lawrence Woodmere Academy publishes where its graduates go (Class of 2015): 22 colleges, including Boston University, New York University, University of California, Berkeley, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
  • Worth asking admissions: the school profile. Reach doesn't yet show this school's SAT/ACT or AP results. Every private school produces a counselor's "school profile" for colleges, and most post it online — ask admissions for it. How a school answers says as much as the numbers.

Enrollment trend & projection

Total enrollment went from 243 in 2018 to 149 in 2022 — over 4 years.
-38.7%
Why only 3 data points?

Private school enrollment comes from the NCES Private School Universe Survey (PSS), which is collected every other year — not annually like public-school data. The most recent published collection is 2021–22; NCES targeted spring 2026 for the 2023–24 release — we'll load it as soon as it's published.

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of -11.5%/year, projecting from 2022's 149 students:

2023
132
2025
103
2027
81

A small or specialty program — naive trend math doesn't capture the school's full picture. Read the trend as directional, not predictive.

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