Certified Enrollment holds steady for CAL

     The CAL School District released its certified enrollment report, in conjunction with its regular board of education meeting on Oct. 10, and numbers show that enrollment is holding steady.
     Enrollment this year is registered at 261.14 students, up almost a tenth of a percent from 2015’s 261.05.
     Shared Superintendent for Hampton-Dumont and CAL Todd Lettow said that the marginal increase is due to more students taking courses at community colleges, which the state reimburses the district for.
     Lettow explained that each student in the district is weighted at one full student. A student who takes a college level course is weighted slightly higher than one student, which is what makes the certified enrollment higher.
