The Author conducted a policy analysis of the Voluntary Desegregation Policy in the Bakersfield City School District. The study was a quantitative analysis regarding compliance on reduction of high concentration of Black and Hispanic students and integrating them with students in highly concentrated White schools. The Voluntary Desegregation Policy was a solution by leaders in the Bakersfield City School District and U.S. Department of Justice during the Reagan Administration to reduce the concentration of Black, White, and Hispanic students in segregated schools and tried to integrate them to ratios more proportionate to the rest of the district. This quantitative analysis used indices to measure and evaluate racial isolation and diversity. This dissertation was an assessment of a policy based on good faith efforts.
