Is Enrollment Way Up or Only a Little Bit? Depends on What They Are Selling…

We listened to School Superintendent Dr Ember Conley’s interview on KPCW and she was being questioned about the $5.7 million professional studies building they are going to vote for again tomorrow. It’s funny, though… during that interview Dr Conley repeated the idea that our school district has experienced so much growth, and therefore, facilities like these are needed.

A few minutes ago we were doing some research and saw this nugget on the footer for each school’s “About Us” Page (click image for bigger view).

“The district has only increased by 265 students over the past 5 years.”

So are we experiencing extreme growth or growth of only 265 students in 5 years? We guess it depends on what they’re selling.
