SLIM AND HUSKY SIZES. Ph. OR 3-5056 5,073 Pupils To Sign Up In Roseburg Estimated student enrollment in the Boseburg Schools in Septem ber will be 5.073, according to Supt. M. C. Deller. Total number of students enroll ed in school during the 1958-59 school year was 5,169. Enrollment last year dropped below original estimates. Deller attributed this to the recession. Following is a listing of how many students are expected to en roll in each 'grade: Grade one 575, Grade two 471. Grade three 423, grade four 450, grade five 460, grade six 534, grade seven 411, grade eight 375, grade nine 360, grade ten 341, grade 11 - 382, grade 12 - 293. Purpose The 575 prediction for the first grade- is based on the number of four year-olds in the 1956-57 cen sus. Prior to this year the chief pur pose in projecting the enrollment was to usa the enrollment as a ba sis for building needs. This year it is necessary to make the pro jection for another need that being to estimate the income of basic school support, Deller said. One way of projecting the enroll ment is to extend the. enrollment of grade one and declare that will be the enrollment of grade two the following year, such a projection would result in an estimation of 5,445 pupils for the school year 1958-59: 5,770 in 1959-60, and 5,910 in 1960-61. Our experience, how ever, does not substantiate such a growth, Deller addeq. Accurate Syittm A more accurate system of pro jecting enrollments is to compute, from the enrollment records, the percentage of pupils who are en rolled in one grade from the num ber of pupils who were enrolled in the lower grade the preceding year. This percentage is termed survi val ratio. Based upon the compu tations the superintendent said that at this moment little pressure, if any, for school housing needs will be Celt at the elementary level. Considerable pressure will be placed upon the buildines at the junior high scbool level and great pressure will be placed upon the level, he said. Academy Expects Same Enrollment An estimated 80 students are ex pected to enroll Sept. 2 in the Roseburg Junior Academy. , The enrollment will be about 'the same as last year.
