This first in a series of bulletins on trends and projections presents past and projected enrollment trends in public elementary and secondary schools from 1965 to 2000. Enrollments in regular elementary and secondary schools from the Center for Education Statistics' Common Core of Data Survey were used to develop the projections. For the remainder of the 1980s and into the 1990s, total enrollment will increase in public elementary and secondary schools. The rising number of annual births since 1977 is expected to continue the growth in elementary enrollment in the late 1980s and spur growth in secondary enrollment in the 1990s. Technical notes, two figures, and two tables are included. (MLF)
