Despite crowding in some schools, District 6 is still predicting a slight drop in enrollment numbers this year.
Superintendant Zoe Watson says, while they won't know for sure until everyone is settled, they are predicting a drop of about 150 students, maybe more. The reduction is expected in the outlying areas of the school district in Sussex and Hampton.
Watson says they projected a small decrease in students last year as well and ended up with a decline of about 100.
