The exodus

http://www.letduluthvote.com/images/Schooltrends.jpg

This is an old graph from the Trib. Its shows the enrollment decline of ISD 709 and the increase of just one area charter school system – the Edison Schools. Edison is expecting another 80 new students to transfer in from the Duluth School District next year over and above its regular enrollment.

I still haven’t had time to calculate next year’s likely out migration for Duluth but I’ve discovered that our Finance Director is oblivious to it.

The overall trend lines will look like this only much worse.
