[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's very hard to know exactly how many HS juniors there are in a school system where only half the 8th graders go on to graduate HS. Some kids drop in and out of DCPS programs throughout HS. 4,000 juniors sounds really low to me.[/quote] Consider that DCPS and PCS together are a hair over 100K students, and they offer 14 grades -- Pre-K to 12 -- you'd expect about 1/14, or 7K, in each grade. [/quote] In 2018-19 there were 4,191 juniors in both sectors combined. The number of students (DCPS and PCS) still declines significantly every year after 1st. There is a always another drop from 5th to 6th, and decreases each year of high school. 11th graders (combined PCS and DCPS): 16-17 3734 17-18 4215 18-19 4191 Contrast the above with K for 2018-19 - 7,491[/quote]
