Schools will now be offering more choices for students to identify themselves. Students of multiracial heritage will no longer have to decide which race they identify with the most. They can check multiple boxes, according to an article in the Washington Post, Multiracial Pupils to Be Counted in a New Way, by Michael Alison Chandler and Maria Glod.
