Abstract

This report presents the results of a study conducted by the Population Research Center (PRC) to address the long-range planning needs of the Gresham-Barlow School District (“District”). It provides annual enrollment projections by grade for the District's eleven elementary and five middle school attendance areas from 2006 to 2015. It also provides annual enrollment projections by grade for elementary and middle schools. The projections correspond to the medium growth District-wide scenario developed by PRC in the 2004 study. The report begins with an overview of recent population and housing trends in the District's elementary and middle school attendance areas as they relate to changes in school enrollment. Next, results of annual enrollment projections for the District's eleven elementary and five middle school attendance areas from 2006 to 2015 are presented. The following section introduces annual enrollment projections for elementary and middle schools. A section discussing the methodology and assumptions used to develop the projections follows. Finally, conclusions are drawn and recommendations are offered, followed by a list of references used in the study. Detailed tables and figures showing projected grade-level enrollment by school attendance area and by school, along with other relevant information, are provided in the Appendix.
