[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They said that 5500 students transferred out of the district to homeschool/private school (half homeschool and 1/4 regular private and 1/4 parochial) and 1400 have re-enrolled.

It's less than I thought had transferred and less than I thought would return. [/quote]

Those numbers do not sound accurate at all since the number was over 13,000 mid year and the board of supervisor number was closer to 30,000.

Sounds like Gatehouse is cooking the books.[/quote]

There was no mention of how many students left for other public schools.  Some people moved to areas where school was in person and some moved out of this area for cheaper areas due to increased teleworking options.

Also at least a few thousand of the 13000 were because there were fewer registered kindergarteners than expected. I'm not sure how or if they were counted for something like the table because some never registered and they may not be considered to have left if they were registered and then pulled before the start of the year.
