4. "Almost 30 percent of the state's schools had fewer than 10 percent white students, and in 11 percent of the schools, fewer than 1 in 100 students are white, according to the report from UCLA's Civil Rights Project, released today. The study used federal data through 2011.
The uneven distribution of students in New York, which has increased over the past 20 years, is being driven in part by New York City, which has more than a third of the state's students. More than half of the city's 32 community school districts are "intensely segregated," and a majority of charter schools are so-called apartheid schools, with fewer than 1 percent white students, according to the study. Schools with mostly minority students have less-experienced teachers and inadequate facilities and resources, said Gary Orfield, one of the study's authors."
