San Diego Unified implemented its much-touted Vision 2020 plan, which sought in part to keep kids in their neighborhood schools, nearly a decade and a half ago. Neighborhood participation rates haven't budged.
San Diego County has 30,000 fewer students attending public school than a decade ago, with another 112,000 projected to be lost over the next 20 years. The drivers are falling birth rates, high living costs and weaker migration—not a mass move to private or home schools—raising the prospect of closures.
Over the past decade, enrollment at San Diego County public schools has decline by about five percent. That means there are 27,000 fewer students in local schools. State officials warn the decline will worsen, forcing tough decisions for educators.
