Tl;dr Private School

• neogodless 5y ago
  Hmm... > In 2019-2020, public school enrollment dropped by 3 percent nationwide Later > The National Association of Independent Schools comprises private, non-parochial schools. They report a net enrollment growth of 1.7% over the two pandemic years.

    Considering that private/independent school population is much smaller, a 3% drop in a large population is not made up for in a 1.7% increase in a smaller one. Homeschooling is also a factor, but there have been kids that have simply disappeared from school: I've seen it first hand, and have contacts that tell me it's systemic throughout my state.

      My nephew is one of those. Such a thing was always hard to inagine growing up where I was. So weird.
