October 25, 2007 By: richard.ginn Category: Uncategorized

on just the Alexandria City Public Schools system is out. The report says that the school district population is mostly made up of Black and Latino students with one high school and that over 50% of both of those races want to take more AP classes.

Almost 100% of Black and Latino students want to go to college says the report, but the report goes on to say that the school district is not doing enough to get Black and Latino students into college.

When the report compared the lone high school it has to other school districts in the area they showcase the other school districts with a way higher Advanced Diploma Graduation Rate. When they compared it to race only the lone high school had way lower amount of Black and Latino students get Advanced Diplomas.

The amount of Black and Latino students in the lone high school only combine for only 25% of the Advance Diplomas while white students got 63% of them.
