How much the mix changed

Between 2006-07 and 2010-11 the makeup of this school shifted noticeably.

That’s the second-largest shift among the district’s eight elementary schools — larger than 71% of Essex County elementary schools. That roughly tracks the district overall (6.2) — a district-wide change more than a school-specific one. The biggest moves, in percentage points:
Black −8.4·Hispanic +5.3·White +2.4
