ANALYSIS OF MEMBERSHIP AT THE CLOSE


OF EACH MONTH OF SCHOOL, 1966-67


The data included in this report are compiled from Item 30, "Membership
at Close of Each Month of School," Principal's Annual Report on Attendance,
Form At-14p, submitted to the State Department of Education at the close of
the 1966-67 school year. Data pertaining to adult and vocational schools
with classes extending beyond the regular school year are excluded from the
tabulations in this report. The University School in Leon County is excluded
for the same reason.

This is the tenth year for which the Research Division has made a
complete tabulation of monthly membership figures. Data for 1956-57 are
based on incomplete reports. Research Report 58 is a statistical study
prepared in an effort to establish long range growth patterns of value
for educational planning purposes.

Table 1 shows, for a ten year period, a comparison of the change in
membership at the close of each month of school from the membership at
the close of the first month. Table 2 gives the comparable percent of
change.

Table 3 gives the change in membership at the close of each month from
membership at the close of the first month for each county for the 1966-67
school year. This membership change is given by grade group 1-6, 7-9, 10-12,
as well as for the county as a whole. The numbers shown in this table for
each month should be related back to the membership shown for the first month.


PEAK MONTH

Traditionally, the membership pattern in Florida schools has been thought
of as a horse-shoe shaped curve, rising sharply during the winter months and
then dropping back toward the end of school. There has been a tendency for
the peak membership period to level out, or more nearly approach the begin-
ning membership. Of course, some counties still experience peak months that
are substantially above the beginning and ending months. A study of Table 3
will emphasize the different membership patterns.

For the second time in four years the fifth month was the peak membership
month. It has maintained its position prior to 1962-63, when the fifth
month was the peak month for the state as a whole. There is considerable
variation among the counties as to the month in which maximum membership is
reached. This variation is shown below. The number in parentheses indicates
the peak month for the previous year. For example, Baker County reached
its peak membership at the first month of 1966-67 and in the fifth month of
1965-66.

MEMBERSHIP CHANGE

Fifty-two counties showed a loss in total membership between the end
of the first month and the close of school in 1966-67. At the elementary
level forty-one counties showed a gain. Seven counties, Dade, Highlands,
Manatee, Okeechobee, Palm Beach, Putnam, and Sarasota showed some net
increase at the end of the year at the junior high level. Only Union County
had a net increase at the senior high level.

As shown above, the net membership loss during the year for the state
whole was 8,161 pupils. This net is a little misleading inasmuch as
of the junior-senior high school loss was offset by a gain in grades

LAST MONTH OF SCHOOL


The greatest net change in membership comes during the last month of
school each year--between the end of the eighth month and the close of the
school year.

The exact cause of this ninth month drop has not been identified positively.
In tourist counties one explanation is that it is due to winter residents with-
drawing pupils in order to return to other states. Decreasing winter farm
activity late in the school year may be a partial explanation in counties with a
large number of migratory farm workers. Early vacationsmay be a factor. It
appears that the pupils withdrawing during the last month of school are distri-
buted fairly proportionately among the grade levels.

It does appear that the ninth month loss is of a different nature than
the loss during other months where such loss is not distributed proportionately
among the grade groups. This could prove a fruitful area for investigation
in those counties where the loss is substantial. Could a readjustment in the
school calendar reduce this loss and increase Minimum Foundation Program funds
allocated?


DROPOUTS

This report is not a dropout study. It is concerned with net membership
each month--beginning membership plus re-entries less withdrawals. Thus new
students transferring into a school system during the year can offset with-
drawals. These data do have limited significance for those interested in the
dropout problem.

In those counties where the elementary school membership increases or
holds reasonably stable, but junior and senior high school membership
decreases during the year, the most probable explanation must be dropouts
at the high school level. It is probable that families with younger children
are more mobile than families with older children. However, it is not a
reasonable assumption that most of the people moving into Florida have
children in the elementary grades whereas most of the people moving out of
the State have children at the secondary level.


COUNTY STUDY NEEDED

Each county should examine carefully the figures for its own schools.
At the local level, it is possible to prepare detailed tabulations on a
school-by-school basis. In this way it should be possible to identify those
schools and even grades in which further investigation is needed. Inasmuch
as State foundation program funds are directly related to pupils in school,
such an effort at the local level could result in considerable financial
return to a county as well as good to the pupils who otherwise might be lost
to the school situation.

There are many situations where elementary membership increases during
the course of the school year, but junior and senior high membership declines
steadily. If the schools of a county where this pattern prevails are adequately
staffed at the beginning of the school year, then, unless changes are made in
the assignment of teachers, the elementary grades will be understaffed and the
secondary grades will be overstaffed as the year goes on. This has significance
in planning the allocation of instructional personnel.


-4-









A number of counties experience peak membership at all levels early
in the school year. In such counties classroom space, desks, books, and
other facilities must be provided at the beginning of the school year and
become unused or unnecessary as the year moves along. Investigation may
reveal that the decline in membership is beyond the control of school
authorities, in which case little constructive action can be taken. On
the other hand, if the county can take steps to retain membership during
the year, more efficient use can be made of facilities, teachers, and
supplies already provided and increased minimum foundation and capital
outlay funds can be earned.


MISCELLANEOUS MEMBERSHIP DATA

Table 4 presents some miscellaneous membership data. Column I answers
the question of growth over the summer months from the close of one year to
the beginning of the next year. It shows the change in membership from the
close of the 1965-66 school year to the first month of the 1966-67 year.
State-wide, there were 47,554 more pupils on the active roll at the end of
the first month of 1966-67 than were on the roll when school closed in
1965-66.

Column II answers the question of growth from the first month of one
year to the first month of the succeeding year. From the first month of
the 1965-66 year to the first month of the 1966-67 year, there was an
increase of 37,254 pupils.

Column III gives the average daily membership for 1965-66 and Column
IV gives the average daily membership for 1966-67. Column V is the differ-
ence between Column III and Column IV, or the change in average daily mem-
bership. Fourteen counties had a lower average daily membership in 1966-67
than in 1965-66,


PERCENT OF MEMBERSHIP CHANGE DURING 1966-67

Table 5 gives the percent of change in membership by grade group between
the end of the first month and the close of the 1966-67 school year for each
county It is the percent of gain or loss in membership during the year.
Overall, there was a net decrease of .65 percent. Grades 1-6 showed a gain
of 1.17 percent as compared to a net loss of 1.05 percent in grades 7-9 and
a net loss of 5.41 percent in grades 10-12.


ADULT AND VOCATIONAL SCHOOLS

Membership data for special adult and vocational schools with an
irregular membership pattern or with classes extending beyond the regular
school year are not included in any of the regular tables or summaries
in this report. Data for these schools also were omitted from previous
reports in this series. The excluded schools and membership data for
these schools follow immediately.
