📰 News we're reading
• Napa Valley Unified enrollment likely to continue falling, but at a slower pace (pressdemocrat.com) — American Canyon schools in Napa Valley Unified are projected to lose only 37 students over the next five years, even as the district overall continues to shrink. New housing at Watson Ranch is expected to add hundreds of students, helping offset regional enrollment declines tied to lower birth rates and high housing costs. Local families can expect slower, more manageable changes than earlier forecasts predicted.
