• Resumen

  • In September, we looked at participation in high schoolphysics by race and ethnicity, and we have provided two different views of physics in high school by socioeconomic status (SES). This month, we consider the proportion of seniors attending schools by race and SES. About half of the Hispanics and almost 45% of the African-Americans among high school seniors in 2013 attended a school where the students were determined to be “worse off” economically than their peers in the local area. The converse is true for Asians and Whites with the vast majority attending schools where students are seen as “better off” than their peers.
