Nine of the 26 local school districts counted zero minority teachers or administrators last fall, according to recently released state data. (Another 11 of the 26 had no minority administrators, but one or more minority teachers.)
All of the combined 55 administrators and 372 teachers counted at Athens, Mar Lee, Tekonsha, Quincy, Union City, Bellevue and Galesburg school districts, as well as the Battle Creek Area Learning Center and Marshall Academy, were white.
But 15 percent of those schools’ combined 6,398 students were minority.
That means the combined 31 American Indian, 33 Asian, 95 black, two native Hawaiian, 141 Hispanic and 103 mutliracial students counted at those schools have no one who looks like them to look up to at school.
