He said those population <br /> losses are in the elementary level. <br /> Commissioner Carter thought that when the County Manager said students "were not <br /> showing up," that it was in reference to an absenteeism problem. <br /> Travis Myren said he should have said those losses are experienced at the elementary <br /> school level. He said students are not appearing in the system. <br />
