Enrollment has declined in California public schools for the fifth year in a row, including a 1.8% decrease from this year to last, according to new data released by the Department of Education.
Flint says, like Moten, families across the state have opted for alternatives to public schools.
The decrease in enrollment has an impact on how school infrastructure is supported and the resources that are offered to students, according to Flint. He says there are a few proposals that are on the table that address enrollment decline, including averaging three years of enrollment so that enrollment in public schools is not defined by the most recent years where it has been at its lowest.
Not every school has seen a decline. Kevin Eckery, the spokesperson for the Roman Catholic Dioceses of San Diego, says local Catholic schools have seen the largest increase in enrollment in two decades. Eckery says the K-8 enrollment is up by 15% while high schools have seen a 4% increase.
