Enrollment trend & projection

Total enrollment went from 304 in 2023 to 608 in 2024 — over 1 years.
+100.0%

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

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of +100.0%/year, projecting from 2024's 608 students:

2025
1,216
2027
4,864
2029
19,456

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

Revenue upside

At $10,275 per student in district revenue, the 18,848 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $193,663,200/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.
