Another Pandemic Shift: In Many School Districts, 1 in 10 Kindergartners Didn’t Show Up
All told, the district’s traditional public schools are serving 2,000 fewer kindergarten students — a decline of around 14%. School districts are seeing similar double-digit declines across the country, from Oakland, California to Philadelphia. Kindergarten enrollment is down 15% from last fall in Hawaii’s schools, according to state data. In Los Angeles, it’s down 14%. And in Gwinnett County, Georgia, where in-person classes have resumed, it’s down 10% since last fall, state and district figures show. | Chalkbeat, Sept. 22
