How much the mix changed

Between 2000-01 and 2004-05 the makeup of this school changed substantially.

The district as a whole shifted just 5.9 over the same years, making this school an outlier. The biggest moves, in percentage points:
Hispanic +20.8·Black −14.9·White −5.9

The index is half the sum of every group’s change in share, on a 0–100 scale (how it works). At a school this small, a few students moving can swing the index a lot. Compare any two years in the explorer →
