How much the mix changed

Between 2001-02 and 2005-06 the makeup of this school barely moved.

That roughly tracks the district overall (9.3) — a district-wide change more than a school-specific one. The biggest moves, in percentage points:
Black +5.9·White −5.6

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 →
