A recent Siena College Research Institute poll of Monroe County residents indicates strong support for the establishment of magnet schools with specialized curricula that would draw students from both urban and suburban schools. As indicated in the graphs below, 75 percent of all respondents support the creation of such schools. Support was consistently strong across racial/ethnic groups and across both city and suburban residents.
The Siena College poll was commissioned by the Rochester Area Community Foundation and the Democrat and Chronicle. It was conducted during this past December and early January, with 707 county residents, reflecting the demographic makeup of the county population. The poll has a margin of error of +/- 4.7 percent.
The graphs, created by Kate Nelligan, were published by the Democrat and Chronicle on April 5, 2022.
