To find the current enrollment, we need to multiply last year's enrollment by (1 - 11%) = 0.89. 
So the current enrollment = 1000 x 0.89 = 890. Therefore, the answer is D. To find the current enrollment, we need to subtract 11% of last year's enrollment from last year's enrollment of 1000.

11% of 1000 = (11/100) x 1000 = 110

So, current enrollment = 1000 - 110 = 890

Therefore, the answer is D) 890 students.
