When examining Ladysmith-Hawkins School District’s grade level
enrollments over a multi-year time span, the Project Consultants found that
enrollment losses are occurring as a result of comparatively smaller incoming
kindergarten classes and larger departing grade 12 classes. The
Project Consultants did not note significant attritional losses as students
progress from one grade level to the next in succeeding years. In part,
those attritional losses have been offset by apparent student in-migration,
whether through move-ins, non-resident agreements, open enrollment,
and/or parochial school matriculation.
