Just-released research by Dr. Marvin Schick and AVI CHAI Foundation provides 2011-12 enrollment data for all schools outside the yeshiva world and Chassidic sectors:
While the above data provide but a snapshot of the day school enrollment situation, they indicate that day school enrollment, aside from that of the Solomon Schechter schools, has remained fairly stable, despite the continued stresses of the economy.
This year’s essentially flat enrollment suggests that on the whole day schools have thus far weathered the economic crisis, notwithstanding the strains on both parents and scholarship budgets.
