| ICYMI: Segregation in NYC Schools |
| | The first Spotlight post in our series, Understanding and Addressing Segregation in NYC Schools, is aimed at informing conversations about segregation in NYC schools by examining the implications of different definitions of “racial representation” that have been proposed by district leaders and stakeholders. Our second post uses these different definitions to map the location of racially representative elementary and middle schools in NYC, underscoring how the prevalence and location of representative schools shifts depending on the definition used. |
