Non-Binary Student Population Up 366 Percent In Three Years In Massachusetts Public Schools

More Massachusetts children are identifying as non-binary each school year.

The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's public school enrollment data used to break down gender into two categories:  male and female. However, since the start of the 2019-2020 school year, the state has also been tracking a third gender category:  non-binary.
