There were 11,831 African American students enrolled in Middlesex County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 0.6% more than the previous year, according to the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.

Data showed that Middlesex County welcomed a total of 203,986 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, African American pupils comprised 5.8% of the total, making this group the fourth most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 365 schools in Middlesex County, Cambridge Rindge and Latin School recorded the highest enrollment of African American students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 487 students.
