School+Demographic

65% Black and 35% White. There are 1600 total students in the school and about 380 freshmen. The students are into social media first, and education next. The business element is generally supportive when asked to contribute. Black males struggle in the areas of science and math. We have failed to meet AYP in the last 2 years and are looking at a definite third year failure. The school has a general computer lab in the Library for 40 students, and an additional 30 computers for independent library research. Each department ( Science, English, Social Studies, Math etc) has their own lab of computers (30 each). Class sizes are in the low 30s therefore there are times when some students need to share computers. One Smartboard and LCD projector for every department. The school was built in 1927 and lacks air conditioning and adequate ventilation. One principal, 4 assistant principals.
