Description
Introduction Today's startling classroom diversity reflects a major United States demographic shift. According to the U. S. Census Bureau, by the year 2040, White non-Hispanics will make up less than half of the school-aged population. By the year 2010, Hispanics are projected to account for 43% of United States population growth. The Hispanic school-aged population is predicted to increase by 64% over the next 20 years. The proportion of school-aged population that is Asian non-Hispanic was estimated at 4% in 2000 and is projected to rise to 6.6% by 2025. On the other hand, the percentage of the school-aged population that is African-American or Native American is predicted to remain stable (2000).
