Dear Parents/Guardians and Students,
We need your help! The hot topic at the school is all about enrollment and the importance of it. Currently our school enrollment is 188 students. Student count is so important to schools because that is how they are funded. For charter schools, if the student count fluctuates, so does the money that comes in. Our school budget was built on 205 students, which means that the school is receiving less money than expected because the numbers are lower than expected. If the student enrollment does not increase closer to 205, then reduction in expenses will need to be made in the next month or so. These reductions could include services and/or support staff.
Just recently, an aggressive marketing campaign has started, and we are starting to see its effect. Just at the end of October we enrolled 9 students, which demonstrates that it is working. Our marketing campaign consists of Google Ads, Facebook, Instagram, and Yelp. BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please take a moment to comment about the things you like the most about our school by writing a review and making sure to give us the best rating. When people are in search of a school, the reviews are the first thing that they read and it can influence people to come and consider our school.
The best and most effective way of increasing enrollment has always been by word of mouth. Our school has always depended on the recommendations that our parents give to others. This is how we find great families! We encourage you to continue talking about our school. Thank you for your continued support!
Sincerely,
Jesus Armenta
