PK-12 Enrollment

• Concern for 2015/16

– Declining Elementary Enrollment – Potential for Staff Reductions (2-4 Teachers) – No reduction in budget recommendation – No reduction in budget recommendation – Rationale

• Kindergarten Enrollment
• Grade 1 (In-migration)
• Registration information more reliable than enrollment

projections given the addition of FDK.

• FULL DAY KINDERGARTEN!
• Good Class Sizes (Elementary)
• Improving Class Sizes (Dodd)

POSITIVES

• Energy Improvements/Infrastructure Improvements
• Support Service Ratios Improving

– i.e. Student Ratio for Counselors (Elementary/Middle School)

• HOWEVER

– Service demand increasing – mandates and student support needs
