Abstract

This report presents the results of a demographic study conducted by the Portland State University Population Research Center. The study includes analyses of population, housing and enrollment trends affecting the District in recent years, low, middle, and high range forecasts of district‐wide enrollment by grade level for the 2012‐13 to 2021‐22 school years and middle range forecasts of individual school enrollments for the 2012‐13 to 2021‐22 school years. Fall 2011 enrollment in all OTSD schools was 4,089. In the twelve years since 1999‐2000, total K‐ 12 enrollment in the Oregon Trail School District has been relatively stable, never exceeding 4,220 students or falling below 4,036 students. The enrollment increase from Fall 2010 was small (48 students, or 1.2 percent) but it ranks as the largest numeric and percentage enrollment increase in the District’s 14 year history. However, the growth did not make up for the small enrollment declines each of the five years between 2004‐05 and 2009‐10, and K‐12 enrollment remains 131 students (3.1 percent) below its 2004‐05 level of 4,220 students.
