Public School Enrollment Projections, 2019-2028 August 2019 Publication No. 2019-001

This Public School Enrollment Projections report was produced by the Projections and State Data Center of the Maryland Department of Planning as a service to local governments and planning officials.

Foreword

This report, Public School Enrollment Projections, 2019-2028, is an update of the Maryland Department of Planning's annual report on public school enrollment statistics.

The report provides projections of public school enrollment through 2028 by grade for each of Maryland's jurisdictions (23 counties and Baltimore City). Statistics on actual total and public-school enrollment for 2008-2018 are also included.

The public-school enrollment projections utilize the Maryland Department of Planning's population projections by age and sex for each jurisdiction. The population projections are used to derive school-age population (persons 5-17 years of age) and projected births. These projections are then used in conjunction with a "grade succession" methodology to derive the ten-year, grade-specific enrollment projections.

A preliminary set of enrollment projections and supporting materials documenting the projection methodology were sent previously to each School Superintendent and facility planner.
