District 427 expects lower enrollment in future

SYCAMORE – Enrollment projections for Sycamore School District 427 show declining class sizes, less state support and potential teacher cuts in the next three to five years.

The annual projection report forecasts the district’s enrollment and its financial implications on a three-year and five-year basis, with the three-year projection providing the most accurate picture, said Luke Glowiak, assistant superintendent of business.

Three years of decreasing enrollment at the kindergarten level – down 52 students from peak levels in 2007 – could start to surface, with significant implications at the elementary level in the next three years.
