I'm filling out kindergarten papers for my soon to be 5yr old. Ahh how did he get so big?? Anyway, it has 2 spots that I'm kinda at a loss:

Ethnicity- Hispanic?

Race -

I just wrote no on the Ethnicity -Hispanic? spot but am unsure of what the "correct" term is to put under race? Do I write AA or black? I know that sounds completely silly but I've never had to write anything in on a form before, normally there are boxes to check.

AS is really multiracial but his biological parents just called him black. Biodad is black/AA but biomom is a mixture of white/black/puerto rican & some american indian thrown in as well.

I would go with a mixture, so to speak. Fdad is AA, what is fmom's parents? You see my DD's fdad is AA and her fmom is CC & Hispanic. So I would list those three.
