Declining enrollment districts have a difficult time down sizing in that people lose their jobs.....businesses that do not grow have the same problem..No growth hurts school district more because there is a 2% salary creep in school district salaries that automatically occurs if enrollment stays constant from year to year or declines. . When we lose the students we lose funding but salaries keep creeping. the loss of 1100 students translates to a los sof 8 million...I does not take courage to cut the budget in a decling enrollment disitricts ...what other choice is there?? as an aside if a school has a 920 API , property values would dramatically increase in that school's attendance area. john rajcic school board candidate Dynamic school districts much like sucessful buinesses ,in a market economy ,require growth and cash flow… Declining enrollment districts have a difficult time down sizing in that people lose their jobs…..businesses that do not grow have the same problem..No growth hurts school district more because there is a 2% salary creep in school district salaries that automatically occurs if enrollment stays constant from year to year or declines. .
