7.1.1. Student Enrollment Update
Presenter:
Rich Hanson
Description:
As we expected, our enrollment dropped during the month of September as we were able to confirm students that have either notified us they have moved over the summer, or students we removed from our roles because they never showed up at the beginning of the school year.
With our current enrollment of 1036 district wide, we are still 16 students above our budgeting projection of 1020 students.
