Racial Balance Plan

Background

In June 2012, the Greenwich Public Schools were cited by the CT State Board of Education for Racial Imbalance in two schools - Hamilton Avenue School (HAS) and New Lebanon School (NLS). As defined by State Statute (10-226e), schools are cited for racial imbalance when the percentage of the minority population in a given school is 25% points more or less than the average for the comparable schools in the District.

After an extensive public process, and consideration of feedback from the Greenwich community, the State Board of Education approved the Racial Balance Plan presented by the Greenwich Board of Education on July 9, 2014.
