Summary
The October 1966 Beaver Beacon reported 75 students enrolled at Beaver Island Community School in the fall, compared with 57 the previous year. It attributed most of the increase to five families that moved to the island over the summer.
Evidence and limits
The figures are a newspaper report, not a district enrollment return. The issue does not provide grade-level counts, a complete roster, or an independent demographic series.
