A Return to Neighborhood Schools as a Way of Stemming "White Flight."

Flygare, Thomas J.

Phi Delta Kappan, v67 n9 p679-80 May 1986

To halt "white flight" to the suburbs occurring since a 1969-70 court decision imposed cross-town busing, neighborhood schools should be reinstated. The board's decision was challenged by the United States District Court, upheld by the U.S. Court of Appeals (Fourth Circuit), and may become a Supreme Court case. (MLH)
