  1. Prepared by Neighborhood Nexus and Atlanta Regional Commission March 1, 2013 Demographic Profiles of DeKalb School Board Districts

  2. School Age Population (5-17) Key Points: District 2 has the smallest school age population. District 1 has the second smallest school age population. Thus the northern districts have the smallest school age populations Districts 5 and 6 have the highest (they are almost identical), with District 7 not far behind. Thus the southeastern districts have the largest school age populations. Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

  3. School Age Populations compared Key Points: What we are looking for is the same basic “shape” of the bars district-by-district. For the most part, we have that. District 4 is the lone exception in that it has a larger elementary school age relative to the overall “shape” of the bars in the middle school and high school graphs.

  4. Age 0-4 Key Points: District 7 has the largest number of kids ages 0 to 4, about 800 more kids than District 6, which had the lowest number of kids age 0-4. This is the population that will begin hitting elementary school next year. Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

  5. Elementary School Age (5-10) Key Points: District 5 has the largest number of elementary school age kids (ages 5 – 10). District 5 had a low 0-4 population, meaning that they will have extra capacity in the next few years in elementary schools due to low replacement numbers. District 6 is in a similar situation. District 2 had the lowest elementary school age population. District 7 has large populations in both the 0-4 and elementary school age group. Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

  6. Middle School Age (11-13) Key Points: District 6 has the largest number of middle school age kids. District 5 also has large numbers of elementary school age kids. District 6 is in a similar situation. District 2 had the lowest middle school age population AND the lowest elementary school age population. Districts 1 and 4 have the largest “gap” between elementary age and middle school age. (i.e. there are 4,500 more elementary age kids than middle school age kids in District 1).

  7. High School Age (14-17) Key Points: Districts 5 and 6 have the largest number of high school kids as well District 2 had the lowest high school age population, as well as the lowest middle school and elementary school age population. Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

  8. % White Population Key Points: Districts 1, 2 and 4 have the largest percentages of White population of any district, including in comparison to the State and DeKalb County as a whole. These districts also have the fewest school-age kids, but have relatively large populations of PRE-SCHOOL age kids. Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

  9. % Black Population Key Points: Districts 3, 5, 6 and 7 each have greater than 80 percent Black population, all well-higher than State and DeKalb averages. These districts also have the greatest number of school-age kids. District 7 also has the largest number of pre-school age kids Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

  10. % Hispanic Population Key Points: Districts 1, 2 and 4 have the largest percentages of Hispanic population of any district. (They also had the highest percentages of White population). Districts 1 and 4 have more the double the percentage that Georgia and DeKalb have. Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

  11. % Asian Population Key Points: Districts 1, 2 and 4 have the largest percentages of Asian population of any district. (They also had the highest percentages of White and Hispanic population). District 7 also has a relatively large Asian population when compared to State and DeKalb averages. Source: ESRI Connecting Atlanta’s Communities

District 3 has the lowest household income, about 25% lower than Georgia’s household income. The other districts are similar in terms of household income.
