    Comparison of Dual Credit Population's Ethnicity Distribution to High School Population's Ethnicity Distribution Ethnicity distributions for TCC's partner high schools were obtained using the 2016-2017 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) from the Texas Education Agency (TEA). These high school ethnicity distributions were compared to TCC's 2016-2017 dual credit ethnicity distribution. For high schools with more than 100 dual credit students, a disparity measure was calculated to determine high schools with the largest differences (Figure 1). Among these high schools, Lamar, Juan Sequin, James Bowie, and Kennedale were the top four with the largest differences (Figure 2).
