Birmingham City Schools is the public school system for the City of Birmingham, administrated by the Birmingham Board of Education.


Enrollment

The city school system has declined in enrollment since the 1970s when 60,000 to 70,000 students filled the halls. In Fall 2004 the system lost more than 2,000 students from the year previous, then another 1,565 in 2005 and an estimated 1,080 in 2006. The number of students determines, in large part, the amount of state funding given to the system.
