RESEARCH BRIEF Research Services
RESEARCH BRIEF Research Services Vol. 0901 Christie Blazer, Supervisor November 2009 Dr. Terry Froman, Supervisor Dale Romanik, Director Enrollment Projections for Presentation & Discussion: 2010-11 Pupil Population Estimating Conference At A Glance The 2010-11 projected enrollment offered by Research Services represents a small increase in student enrollment. The District’s student enrollment is projected to be 341,324 in 2010-11, an increase of 0.3 percent (1,077 students) from 2009-10. A slight increase in the District’s 2009-10 student enrollment reversed a seven year decline. Research Services calculates enrollment projections on an annual basis. These projections are presented each year at the district’s Pupil Population Estimating Conference. For this year’s projections, two years of trend data (2008-09 and 2009-10) were used to project student enrollment for 2010-11. Projections are provided by individual grade level and for the district’s total Pre-K through grade 12 enrollment. METHOD The projections provided include student enrollment in grades pre-K to 12 covered by the Florida Education Finance Program (FEFP). Projections include programs such as alternative education and Exceptional Student Education (ESE). Charter schools are also included in the projections. However, non-FEFP funded enrollment such as specially funded pre-K programs (e.g., State Intervention, Title I, and Head Start), adult vocational enrollment, and students receiving McKay Scholarships are not considered in these projections. The methodology used for projecting enrollments for 2010-11 is a cohort survival technique. The cohort survival method uses the proportion of increase or decrease in enrollment between any two grades (or between years for predicting kindergarten and pre-kindergarten enrollments).

The registration process will begin at a special Town Meeting, which will be devoted to the introduction of the online Course Catalogue (including a preview of new courses) and an overview of the course registration process. Following the Town Meeting, cluster advisers will share a Course Registration Packet with each of their advisees. The packet will include the student’s current academic transcript, a Transcript Audit Review Form, and a Course Selection Form. Although it is ultimately the student’s responsibility to complete his/her Course Selection Form, this process works best when students consult with teachers, cluster advisors, and parents/guardians to make informed decisions. It is advised that each student utilize the Transcript Review Audit Form to ensure that adequate progress is being made toward all Calhoun graduation requirements.
