A model one -
way desegregation program begun 15 years ago in Hartford, Conn., is being phased out by order of the local school board, which argued that the district can no longer afford to send city students to suburban schools.
Issues in equity and
desegregation negatively impact student success in numerous
ways to include a lack of access and opportunity to gifted
programs and advanced coursework, low expectations, disproportionate student discipline, and unequal resource distribution.
