How much the mix changed

Between 2014-15 and 2018-19 the makeup of this school barely moved.

That’s the seventh-largest shift among the district’s 16 high schools — larger than 58% of Essex County high schools. The biggest moves, in percentage points:
Black +5.3·Hispanic −5.3

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 →
