					<h1>Demographics and free or reduced lunch by district, 2012-13</h1>
<p class="byline">by UNC Charlotte Urban Institute, EducationNC <br />March 16, 2015</p>
					<p>This week’s map looks at the intersection of two previous topics: <a href="https://www.ednc.org/map/2015/03/09/2013-2014-district-and-school-demographics/" target="_blank">student demographics</a> and <a href="https://www.ednc.org/map/2015/02/16/free-reduced-lunch-school-level/" target="_blank">free and reduced lunch applicants</a>.</p>
<p>The size of the circle represents the percent of students applying for free and reduced lunch- the larger the circle, the higher the percentage of students applying for free and reduced lunch. The color of the circle represents the percent of students who are non-white in the school. Schools in orange are below the state average (24.5 percent) in non-white percentage, and schools in blue are above. Use the dropdown menu to explore your district.</p>
