California K – 12 School Population Falls Again
Admissions time in Piedmont comes as schools face further declines, forcing school closures in some Bay Area cities.
“The [California] 1.8% enrollment decline, on top of the 2.6% record drop in 2020-21, is a combined loss of 271,000 students since Covid struck in spring 2020. Enrollment as of Census Day, always the first Wednesday of October, was 5.89 million students this year; five years ago, it was 6.23 million.” Ed Source, April 11, 2022
