Demographics

Since the early 1990s, FCPS' fastest growing segment is its Asian-American student population, which is second only to whites. Most of the Asian student growth comes from Korean Americans, as Fairfax County is home to strong Korean American communities in business districts such as Annandale and Centreville. As a result, most FCPS schools have access to Korean interpreters and staff members to help parents who do not speak English well. There are also many Chinese American and Indian American students moving to Fairfax County. The enrollment of these demographics among Asians is second to Korean Americans. A large number of Filipino American and Vietnamese American students live toward the eastern region of the county, bordering Arlington and Falls Church.

Hispanic growth continues significantly as well throughout the county, in particular in the southeast portion of the county and the Herndon area. Hispanic enrollment surpasses that of African Americans but is not growing at the rate of Asian Americans. African American enrollment has been stagnant in the last few years, while white enrollment has steadily dropped since the 1990s due to lower birth rates and many families moving to suburbs whose school districts are farther away from Washington, D.C. Loudoun County Public Schools, directly west of Fairfax County, is a common destination. In the 2006-2007 school year, FCPS was 55.1% White; 17.8% Asian; 16.2% Hispanic; 10.7% Black; and 0.3% Native American. ^[5] Coordinates: , State Virginia County Fairfax County, Virginia Settled 1858 Area  - City 4. ...
