Scale Range: 10 – 352,274
Definition: Number of students enrolled in public high schools by race/ethnicity.
Notes: High schools defined as those with lowest grade of 7 through 12 and highest grade of 12 only. Data for 1999-2001 geocoded from zip codes to metropolitan areas. Enrollment by race/ethnic groups will not necessarily sum to total enrollment because not all schools reported enrollment by race/ethnicity. Data for multi-racial students only collected for all states as of 2010-2011. Excludes metro areas in which 10% or more of students attended schools for which race/ethnicity data was not reported.
