Definition: Percentage of public school students receiving special education services, by race/ethnicity (e.g., among California students enrolled in special education in 2020, 58.1% were Hispanic/Latino).
Data Source: California Dept. of Education, Special Education Division custom tabulation (Jun. 2021).
Footnote: Race/ethnicity categories are mutually exclusive. Years presented are the final year of a school year (e.g., 2019-2020 is shown as 2020). The notation S refers to percentages that have been suppressed because there were fewer than 160 total special education enrollees, and to numbers that have been suppressed because there were between 1 and 10 enrollees in that group or to protect confidentiality. N/A means that data are not available or that the percentage was far above average for that year (more than 3 standard deviations above the mean).
