NYS High School DemographicsConsiderations for Change • NYS High School Graduate Projections • Regional Distributions • Racial/Ethnic Trends and Distributions • Future Analyses
NYS High School Projection M E T H O D O L O G Y • Originally developed by Dr. Glenwood Rowse, Coordinator, Office of Research and Information Systems NYSED. • Cohort Survival Method based on prior year grade-to-grade attrition (or growth) using at least four years of K-12 historical data. • Designed as a hybrid model that finds the best value, or “Grade Progression Rate” (GPR) to project future cohorts. • The model selects the best of 3 different ways of computing the GPR: (1.) basic average, (2.) weighted average and (3.) the “trend” or linear regression (R2) of the most recent years. • The level of analysis is the county; county #’s & ratios are generally quite stable making this a reliable level of detail to work from. • Important to remember any projection figures will vary as new data becomes available. • Accordingly, the first several projected years are likely to be more accurate, with the margin of error increasing the further out we project.

Notes of InterestUpstate/Downstate Divergences • Overall, Upstate NY’s general population grew by a mere 1.1 percent in the 1990’s, slower than the growth rate of every state but West Virginia and North Dakota. • Within Upstate NY, only two regions grew in the 1990’s, the Hudson Valley region which extends north of NYC through Albany and Saratoga. • Upstate NY’s racial/ethnic minority population is small and unevenly distributed among its metropolitan areas & segregated within them. • Overall, more people moved out of Upstate NY than moved in during the 1990’s; 1.7 million migrating out & 1.3 million coming in. • Nearly 30 percent of new residents in Upstate NY in the 1990s were prisoners.

Notes of InterestUpstate/Downstate Divergences • NYC’s general population grew considerably during the 1990’s, with a record 8 million residents in 2000. • Neighborhoods throughout the city grew, especially the outer boroughs and surrounding areas. • NYC owes it’s population growth and unrivaled diversity to new arrivals from abroad. Whites, blacks and Hispanic’s each make up at least a quarter of the city’s population. • The city added nearly 800,000 residents from abroad. Without this gain in immigrants, the city’s population would have decreased over the 1990’s. • Nearly half of the city’s foreign-born come from the Caribbean and Latin America, but significant numbers also hail from Eastern Europe and East Asia.

What’s Next??? • Further refine and update projection model. • Drill down to the district level, so we can tie to SUNY’s top feeder schools. • Also try county (district?) level projections for racial/ethnic, gender, and socio-economic distributions. • Continue to tie NYS high school data to SUNY applicant and enrollee trends for planning purposes. • Take a closer look at the “Big Five” school districts. • Consider other NYS demographic features such as national origin, language, sub-cultural elements, etc.
