(KAIR)--Enrollment is up in one local school district, but down in another.

That follows the release of preliminary enrollment numbers during meetings Monday night held by the Board of Education for USD 430, in Horton, and for USD 377, in Effingham.

The South Brown County schools have noted an increase, with the student count currently checking in at 16 more than last year.

It's a different story for the Atchison County Schools. “Enrollment's down across the district,” School District Superintendent Steve Wiseman tells MSC News. “We're looking at anywhere from a 35 to 50 student decrease, just depends on how things play out. We've got several new kids enrolling this week. Typically in any given year, over the last 5 to 7 years, we've had a population where we would see 60 to 65 students that would come in new to our school, and 65 to 70 that would be leaving our district. It's just been a transient population, and so this year we just seem to have a few more leaving than are coming in.”

Wiseman says unlike the past state method that provided funds to Kansas districts based on the amount of students, the temporary block grant funding, as approved in 2015 by the Kansas Legislature, means no effect despite the decrease. “Right now, it all depends on what the Kansas Supreme Court determines as far as the lawsuit on school adequacy and funding. My biggest concern is that with any new formula typically that's deemed fair and constitutional, generally has an enrollment factor waiting that's include as a component of that formula. Our biggest concern is going to be funding in the future, and how that relates and ties directly to the enrollment that we have.”

The official enrollment count for Kansas schools will be taken September 20.
