Enrollment Patterns and Enrollment Patterns and ImpactImpact
Enrollment/Attendance and Enrollment/Attendance and FundingFunding
Decline in enrollment impacts funding
Funding is based on Average Daily Attendance (ADA)- higher % of total enrollment the higher the funding
Why is declining enrollment a problem?
Revenue decreases more than direct expenses, for example:
If enrollment dropped 30 students, the District’s base revenue will drop:
30 students x $5,500 = $165,000
We would reduce only one full-time teacher- estimate $70,000
Loss of $95,000
