Enrollment projections from UW experts
available on-line
The
Applied Population Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has
posted its report,
Wisconsin's Public School Enrollment: Past, Present, & Future.
The report projects that enrollments, which have already stopped
declining and begun to rise in Wisconsin elementary schools, will do the
same at the middle level in about 2009, and in high schools in about
2013. The numbers are then expected to continue rising for the
foreseeable future.
The report also breaks down data by urban, suburban, and rural
districts. Studies of gender, age, and ethnicity demographics are also
included.
The
Applied Population Laboratory is a group of research and outreach
professionals within the
UW-Madison.
