History

In a period of 10 years ending in 2013, the district's student demographics changed from 58.2% black to 59.1% Hispanic due to an influx of Hispanics into Maywood. Michael Robey, the superintendent of the district, stated that Hispanic families bought houses vacated due to the collapse of the United States housing bubble. [4]

As a result of the influx of the Hispanic students, the schools added bilingual and English-learning programs. Robey stated that he hopes to use the new demographics to teach Anglophone students Spanish and Hispanophone students English, characterizing the situation as "a win-win opportunity." [4]
