Enrollment in the Hood River County School District is essentially the same as it was at the start of last school year. Superintendent Bill Newton says the district currently has 3,810 students, up by two from one year ago, and up 35 from the end of the last school year. He adds that’s a change from what has been a gradual downward trend in the last two years, but also noted they have not seen a bump up in kindergarten and first grade enrollment. Newton says for future planning, it’s difficult to say what the early enrollment numbers mean. He points out much of that will be determined by funding levels the Oregon Legislature establishes in the 2025 session.
