Enrollment Trends
According to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), PreK-12 public school enrollment in the US stabilized in 2022, increasing 0.4% between fall 2021 and fall 2022. While public PreK-12 enrollment is in recovery, it has yet to reach pre-pandemic levels; there is potential for future enrollment declines as parents look to pursue either non-traditional or supplementary education programs for their children.
According to the Choose to Learn 2024 study by Tyton Partners (Boston, MA), a leading provider of investment banking and strategy consulting services to the global knowledge sector, 48% of all K-12 parents are "open-minded" and primed to seek new educational opportunities. Growing parental interest in alternative educational opportunities can be attributed to increases in school choice plans at the state level. Growing interest in the latter once signaled that parents were drawn to private or homeschooling options but has now grown to encompass more personalized learning options for parents and students. As described by the
K-12 parents surveyed in the Tyton Partners study, these include:
- Supplementation: Parents may choose to maintain their child's enrollment at an educational institution but add supplementary activities and programs. This can include tutoring, enrichment programs, internships, and service-learning opportunities among other activities.
- Switching: Parents may choose to switch/transition their child to a new school setting. This can include private schooling, microschooling, and homeschooling.
- Customization Parents may choose a combination of supplementation and switching to best meet their child's needs. Parents that choose customization focus on creating a "bespoke" educational experience by combining learning experiences and programs from multiple places. The student centric learning opportunities would be vastly different than those found in a traditional classroom.
Homeschooling has become the fastest-gaining area in K-12 education, with enrollment increasing from 2.5 million in 2019 to 4.3 million in 2022 - 51% growth. This change is largely attributable to the pandemic. According to Tyton Partners, 60% of parents reported that the pandemic changed their educational preferences and expectations; many parents (80%) stated that "their child's learning experiences could and should happen anywhere.
