School enrollment to decrease in Ohio
According to an article from the Ohio School Boards Association, Ohio’s public school enrollment is expected to decline by 3.1 percent by 2018. This is according to a National Center for Education Statistics report. The dip, OSBA says, will cause a greater financial challenge for Ohio’s schools and communities. Fifteen other states are in similar positions, but overall, U.S. enrollment will rise 18 percent. See more stats at Http://links.osba-ohio.org/89696 What do you think will happen in Lakota? Will numbers continue to rise? Lakota officials have said they don’t anticipate the great influx of students they have had in past years, but they do plan for and realize growth each year.
On a side note, Ohio was fifth best in the nation in Education Week’s quality counts report.
