School Enrollment Numbers Keep Changing

Enrollment numbers in the DeKalb County School System keep fluctuating.
As WJLE reported last Tuesday, enrollment was down slightly from last year as of Monday morning. But by Thursday, enrollment was up by ten students over last year.
According to Attendance Supervisor Joey Reeder, a total of 2,909 students were enrolled as of Monday, August 3. But during Thursday night’s Board of Education meeting, Reeder said numbers taken from the computer showed that district-wide there were 3,015 students enrolled, up from 3,005 a year ago.
“These (numbers) are pretty fluid and will be until Labor Day. We’ll have people coming in and moving out,” said Reeder.
As of Thursday, enrollment at each school was as follows compared to last year:
DCHS: 867 (up by 37 students)
DeKalb Middle School: 536 (down by 18 students)
Northside Elementary: 658 (up by 35 students)
Smithville Elementary: 569 ( down by 40 students)
DeKalb West School: 382 (down by seven students)
