Count Day Numbers Favorable
Over the past few years, the Plymouth-Canton school district has been seeing a decrease in the number of students enrolled. But as count day numbers are now in for the 2016-2017 school year, the district has started to see a positive change in the number of enrollments.
Nicholas Brandon, the district Director of Communications said, “Overall we are currently seeing a slightly positive increase in the fall enrollment numbers, which is especially impressive considering both the decreased birth rate, and enrollment projections that were predicting a continuation of the decreases the district has experienced in the past few years.”
Below are the Count Day numbers:
| SCHOOL | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | *SP ED | DATE | TOTAL | ||
| CANTON | 541 | 456 | 494 | 520 | 3 | 10/5/16 | 2,014 | ||
| PLYMOUTH | 556 | 527 | 520 | 523 | 20 | 10/05/2016 | 2,146 | ||
| SALEM | 531 | 515 | 511 | 491 | 10 | 10/05/2016 | 2,058 | ||
| TOTAL | 1,628 | 1,498 | 1,525 | 1,534 | 6,218 |
Brandon also stated that the district is seeing positive signs that their kindergarten numbers will be up from last year. The district will have a final count confirmed later in the month.
