SWAMPSCOTT — During Thursday’s School Committee meeting, Superintendent of Schools Pamela Angelakis revealed a new student-enrollment program to help keep track of newcomers.

During the Committee’s annual “New and Withdrawn Student Enrollment Information Report”, the first topic Angelakis addressed was new students enrolled as of Nov. 1. She noted that there were 52 new students joining Swampscott Elementary School.

Angelakis noted that the new enrollment data more accurately depicts the academic background of newcomers, detailing whether or not they come from public, private, charter-schools, or were being home-schooled prior to enrollment. The report also covers which grades the students will be going into.

Angelakis noted that while the reports normally were due Oct. 1, the Committee was ultimately side-tracked by the search for Angelakis’ replacement for Superintendent, but wanted to share updates regarding enrollment.

Next, Angelakis discussed Swampscott Middle Schools, and how they will have 40 new students enrolled. “It’s very interesting to see who’s coming back from charter schools, who’s coming back from private schools,” Angelakis said about the list.

One area of growth that Angelakis highlighted was how the overall number of students within Swampscott schools have been on a continual rise. “Our enrollment isn’t dropping,” Angelakis said. “Actually, it’s on the up-tick.”

Angelakis stated how she believes the new Swampscott Elementary School will be a big draw for both children and parents.

As of Nov. 1, Angelakis noted how there were 35 new students enrolled at the Swampscott High School. In total, there were 127 new students enrolled within the three Swampscott Public Schools.

“When I first started in my position, I noticed that both the enrollment and withdrawal processes were a wash,” Angelakis said. “This year they’re not, this year you’ll see a big difference.”
