Demographics

In 2012 the largest groups of students who spoke languages other than English were Russian (530), Marshallese (370), and Spanish (360)-speakers, respectively. In 2006 the school district began receiving large numbers of ethnic Marshallese. The school system created the Marshallese 101 outreach and training program to combat truancy and address issues related to frequent address changes, staying with extended family, and other issues related to Marshallese culture.^[3]
