2010-11 Fall Membership Division Summaries by Ethnicity

VDOE annually collects statistics on the number of students enrolled in public school on September 30th. This report is submitted by each school in Virginia that officially enrolls students (i.e., student records are maintained on a Virginia teacher's register or automated system). Student counts are reported by grade assignment and ethnicity.

Excluded from the September 30 count are special education preschool pupils, pupils in hospitals, clinics or detention homes, and local programs such as vocational and alternative education centers (i.e., centers or schools which receive, but do not officially enroll, students).

The six racial/ethnic categories are as follows:

Unspecified
A person who cannot be classified according to the definitions of any of the six racial/ethnic categories.
