The number of immigrant students enrolled in the Washoe County School District has jumped more than 300% in the last 12 years.
In the 1996-1997 school year there were 565 immigrant students according to district figures; at the end of last year, there were 1,743 immigrants - an increase of 308%.
The school district considers a student an immigrant if he or she wasn't born in the U.S. and hasn't attended a U.S. school for more than three academic years.
The Reno Gazette-Journal has also come out with a report on the number of illegal immigrants living in Washoe County. It estimates about 22,000 people live in our area illegally.
