School starts 2026-27 with fewer students: 191, down from 208

What happened
At the August 27, 2026 meeting the superintendent reported attendance of 191 students, down from 208 at the same point a year earlier, a drop of about 8%. Monthly reports in 2025-26 ranged from about 203 to 215.
Why it matters to families
Texas pays districts largely by attendance, so fewer students means less state money for a very small district.
