1996-97 through 2006-07 reveals a decline in student enrollment from 237
to 177 students, a net loss of -60 students or -25.3%. When comparing
changes in the school district’s student enrollment and full-time equivalent
professional staff member losses between 1996-97 and 2006-07, the

not synchronized its reduction in full-time equivalent professional staff
members with the organization’s student enrollment losses over the nine
year span of time.
