[quote=Anonymous]APS is actually [b]-9.2% (-2,742 students)[/b] from what they were just predicting in April 2021 to be the enrollment for this fall. The 4% actual enrollment decline varies so much from the projected enrollment decline because the much smaller older classes are being replaced by much larger younger classes, as has been going on for years (Arlington's population has been growing at a 14.9% rate from 2010 to 2020 vs. 6.3% in Fairfax). In addition, those "larger" younger classes are actually much smaller than what they were before the pandemic (from June 2020, PK - 24%, K -11.6% and 1st - 9.1%). As for kids who were enrolled who aren't coming back, if you take a look at the cohort of kids in Grades K-6 in June 2020 and compare them now in Grades 2-8, those cohorts' enrollment is down 9.7%.[/quote]
