[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've done a bit of research on this, and if it matters.. student-wise, Key is not one of the more diverse black schools in the area in staff or student, but has some diversity. All Ward 3 schools, along with Shepherd, Lafayette and Hyde-Addison are phenomenal comparatively.

Key-59% white, 14% latino, 11% mixed, 10% black, 5% Asian, 337 students
--
Most diverse Ward 2, 3, 4 schools:
Shepherd - 45% black, 31% white, 14% mixed, 8% latino, 2% Asian, 394 students
Eaton - 48% white, 18% black, 13% mixed, 13% latino, 8% Asian, 436 students
Hearst - 53% white, 20% black, 12% latino, 8% mixed, 7% Asian, 356 students
Murch - 54% white, 18% black, 12% latino, 8% mixed, 8% Asian, 658 students
Hyde-Addison - 38% white, 34% black, 13% latino, 10% mixed, 6% Asian, 400 students
--
Lafayette(Ward 4)-70% white, 10% black, 9% latino, 8% mixed, 3% asian, 923 sudents

Of these, in 2025 only the following schools have more than 50 students each who are black, white, and latino; Eaton, Hyde(Ward 2), Murch, Shepherd(Ward 4) & Lafayette(Ward 4)

[b]Diversity in staff is a different question, but that generally follows the student diversity more or less.[/quote][/b]

This is definitely not true on the Hill, where staff diversity maybe tracks student diversity 10 years ago? [/quote]

Its not really true anywhere except in all black schools [/quote]

With regard to teachers, I think part of it has to do with where the teachers are coming from. schools in Capitol Hill and other parts of Southeast of Northeast have a lot of teachers coming from PG County. Our family has never attended school in Ward three but I imagine teachers would come from closer suburbs to that part of the city in Montgomery County or Arlington.[/quote]
