One of the agenda items during the most recent Hudson School Board meeting was in regards to the school district’s Oct. 1 enrollment.
The Oct. 1 enrollment is the enrollment number school districts use as their official enrollment for the school year and is the number that is submitted to the state.
Earlier this year, the School Board had received a briefing on what they expected the enrollment would be, with the enrollment as of August 2025.
At that time, the enrollment for students across the school district was at 2,892, which was significantly lower than last year which had a total student enrollment of 2,941.
As of the Oct. 1 enrollment, there were a total of 2,876 students enrolled across the school district.
