Enrollment Status and Financial Impact
Current Enrollment Analysis
Our budgeted enrollment target for the 2025-2026 academic year is 975 students. However, our current enrollment stands at 812 students, representing an enrollment gap that directly impacts our operational funding.
This enrollment shortfall has created a significant budget variance that requires immediate attention and strategic planning to address.
The $875,733.80 funding gap represents approximately 16.7% of our budgeted base allocation. This variance necessitates careful financial management and strategic enrollment initiatives to close the gap while maintaining our commitment to educational excellence and operational sustainability.

Strategic Priorities for 2025-2026
As we navigate the 2025-2026 academic year, MYcroSchool has identified four critical priorities that will shape our organizational development and ensure continued excellence in educational delivery. These priorities reflect both our commitment to quality assurance and our strategic growth objectives across our multi-site network.
01
Cognia Accreditation
Achieving Cognia accreditation represents our commitment to meeting rigorous national standards for educational quality. This accreditation validates our instructional programs, demonstrates our commitment to continuous improvement, and enhances our credibility with families, districts, and funding partners. The accreditation process includes comprehensive self-study, external review, and implementation of quality assurance protocols.
02
Charter Renewals
Two critical charter renewals are on our immediate horizon. Biscayne MYcroSchool and Pinellas MYcroSchool both require successful charter renewal applications to continue operations. These renewals demand comprehensive documentation of academic performance, financial stability, operational compliance, and community impact. Our teams are preparing detailed evidence of our educational outcomes and operational excellence.
03
Pinellas Facility Acquisition
Securing an appropriate facility for Pinellas MYcroSchool is essential for program stability and growth. We are actively evaluating potential sites that meet our educational requirements, accessibility needs, and budgetary constraints. The ideal facility will support our innovative instructional model while providing a safe, engaging learning environment for our students.
04
Citrus MYcroSchool Reopening
Preparation for the Citrus MYcroSchool reopening requires careful planning across multiple operational dimensions. This includes facility readiness, staffing recruitment, curriculum alignment, community engagement, and enrollment marketing. We are developing a comprehensive reopening timeline that ensures quality program launch while managing financial and operational risks.
Financial Outlook and Budget Analysis
Our financial position requires careful monitoring and strategic management to ensure operational sustainability while advancing our educational mission. The following analysis presents key financial indicators and budget allocations across our organizational structure.
The financial data illustrates our current revenue streams and expenditure patterns. Our per-student funding allocation drives the majority of our operational budget, making enrollment management a critical factor in financial planning.
We are implementing strategic cost controls while ensuring that resource allocation supports our instructional priorities and student success outcomes.
Financial Outlook and Cash Flow Analysis
Understanding our cash flow is vital for maintaining operational stability and ensuring the successful execution of our strategic priorities. The chart below illustrates our projected cash flow over the next few quarters, reflecting the impact of the current enrollment shortfall and the anticipated benefits of our mitigation strategies.
Managing Our Financial Flow
The initial dip in cash flow reflects the immediate impact of the enrollment gap identified earlier. Proactive measures, including cost management and targeted enrollment initiatives, are crucial to stabilizing and improving our financial position. We anticipate a gradual increase in cash flow as these strategies take effect in early 2026.
This disciplined approach ensures we can continue to invest in student success, maintain quality programs, and pursue our long-term goals despite current challenges.
