What's the main race in your school?


I go to a high school with about 1800 kids. There are about 30 Asians, 15 Blacks, 10 Samoans, 10 Latinos, and everyone else is white.

What's yours like?

My school has about 600 people.
Most of them are white.
There are about 5 or so black people.
Lots of Asians, maybe 30 or 40 or more.
And a few Aboriginals that actually look Aboriginal. Maybe 5.

I count all Europeans as white too. We have way too many Greeks, Italians, Macedonians, etc. to guess the actual number.

My school is split up pretty evenly between White and Black and about 10-20% are Latinos. Our only Asian left last year haha.

I teach in a school with a population of about 2600 kids; 95% of them are Arabic/Muslim. This is in Michigan.

2016
There are 2,800 students in my high school.
There is quite a mix but I mostly see white people. This is a white city. There are a lot of Latinos, though. (me!) Many blacks and Asians too. Though we come from other towns on a permit.

I went a few different schools. One school was mainly white, another was pretty equal race wise and my last high school was mainly black and Latino. I’m white. My last school was actually similar to the one in this movie. Gangs, a few shootings and bomb threats. I got punched a few times once due to fights breaking out in the hall and I got in the way. It was frightening. I was glad to leave.
