Enrollment trend & projection

Total enrollment went from 201 in 2018 to 188 in 2022 — over 4 years.

-6.5%

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.

For a more current snapshot, see Westover School's own published school profile (as of 2023-24): web.archive.org/web/20250109111257if_/www.westove… ↗

If the recent trend holds…

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.
