Busy Years Ahead For N. C. Schools

In North Carolina schools expect large enrollment growth through 1954 as birth rates from 1939 to 1947 translate into more first graders seven years later. Dr Mayo, sociologist at the North Carolina Agricultural Experimental Station, notes white first graders rise to 107.6 in 1948 and to 134.6 in 1953, with 1954 at 150. Non white students show similar upward trends, reflecting the era’s birth patterns and infant mortality adjustments. Staning school in 1954 reflects these demographics.
