Of the 66,680 students attending Seminole County schools, 43.0% were white. Hispanic students were the second largest ethnicity, making up 31.1% of Seminole County students.
In the previous school year, white students were also the most common ethnicity in Seminole County, representing 44.6% of the student body.
Sanford Middle School had the most even distribution of races among the county schools, including 29.5% white students, 23% Asian students, 22.8% Hispanic students, 19.2% Black students, and 4.9% multiracial students.
In the 2022-23 school year, the total number of students enrolled in public schools in the county dropped 0.1% when compared to the previous year.
Florida's choice to stick with in-person classes during the pandemic may have shielded students from significant learning setbacks. A recent Harvard study highlighted that districts heavily reliant on remote learning saw the most significant declines in student achievement amid the COVID-19 crisis.
Interestingly, gaps in math achievement by race and school poverty did not widen in school districts in states such as Texas and Florida and elsewhere that remained largely in-person, said Thomas Kane, professor at Harvard Graduate School of Education.
