6th Day Student Enrollment: Mr. McClain shared 6th day enrollment actuals vs. estimates with committee.
2019-2020 enrollment for the district was projected by Kasarda at 8,175; 6th day ADA enrollment was 8,161.
West’s 6th day enrollment is greater than projected, while enrollment at East, North and South are slightly less than projected. The variance may be impacted by how Home School and Serving School are represented for Transition site students.
Official counts will be taken from Fall enrollment, which reflect students enrolled as of the last school day in September.
Financial Benchmark Data: FY187 data has been compiled by the business office that benchmarks the Illinois Northwest Principals’ Association high school districts to Glenbard.
Data represents a total of 21 benchmark districts.
Financial benchmarks include real EAV per pupil, operating expenditure per pupil, and total tax rate.
Glenbard’s real EAV per pupil is in the lowest 1⁄3 of benchmark group; operating expenditure per pupil is 3rd lowest; and tax rate is 9th lowest in benchmark group.
When considering these factors, Glenbard does an excellent job providing exceptional programming to our students with significantly less spend per pupil than the majority of other districts with larger operating budgets, greater wealth, and higher tax rates.
Committee requested this information be shared with full Board at a future meeting. Monthly Reports: The following reports were shared for review by Committee:
