West Central Valley School enrollment is up over fourteen students from last year. While that may not seem like a lot, district superintendent Dr. David Arnold says it makes a big difference in how much funding the schools get, “Our funding is based on student headcount, so if you take the $6,100 per student, you can see we increased our funding for next school year. The goal is to continue to be in the positive when it comes to student count, and not in the negative.”

Arnold thinks the district is doing the right things in order to continually draw more people into the community and into the classroom.
