The FCBOE has been telling Fayette citizens that student enrollment has been around 22,100 students since last September. LINK

Yesterday, school spokesperson Melinda Berry-Dreisbach admitted to the Atlanta Journal-Consitution that enrollment is currently down to 21,300 students. LINK

We've dropped EIGHT HUNDRED STUDENTS in the past five months?

This is an additional 3.2 percent drop in students to add to the previous 0.5 drop in students that the school system admitted to back in September.

Don't forget: a 3.7% decline in students means far fewer state dollars coming in.

At a charitable 20:1 student-teacher ratio, that would mean at least 40 surplus teaching positions.
