THE NEW DEMOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN SCHOOLS
Adapted from a workshop at the Migration Policy Institute, this presentation presents charts and data on school-age immigrant children. Brief commentary on each chart summarizes the take-away findings. The share of students in Kindergarten through 12th grade with a foreign-born parent tripled from 6 percent to 19 percent in 2000. It is estimated that by 2010, children of immigrants will represent over one-quarter of the student population.
