Kindergarten through Grade 12 (K-12) Enrollment
Compared to Age 5 to 17 Population

- K-12 enrollment usually tracks well with the population age 5 to 17. Moderate variations occur due to trends in the attractiveness of private and/or home schooling.
- The number of school-age children has remained relatively stable since 1999.
- Another wave of enrollment increases should begin in 2010 or 2011 with annual increases reaching 13,000 to 14,000 by 2015.
