Junction Elementary School District's only school enrolled 13 students in the 2022-23 school year, 18.8% less than the previous year, according to the California Department of Education.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 61.5% of them were girls, and 38.5% were boys.

Data also showed that most of the students were American Indian or Alaska Native, making up 76.9% of the Junction Elementary School District's total enrollment.

In the last decade, enrollment in California elementary and secondary schools rose by at least 5%, while high school enrollment dropped 5%.

However, overall enrollment in California public schools is sliding, and the Public Policy Institute of California expects it to drop another 8% by the 2031-32 school year.
