Hinders Desegregation by Permitting School District Secessions
Whiter and Wealthier: “Local Control” Hinders Desegregation by Permitting School District Secessions MEAGHAN E. BRENNAN* When a school district is placed under a desegregation order, it is to be monitored by the district court that placed the order until the district is declared unitary. Many school districts have been under desegregation orders since shortly after Brown v. Board, but have failed to desegregate. Even when a school district is making an honest attempt, fulfilling a de- segregation order is difficult. These attempts can be further complicated when a racially-identifiable set of schools secedes from the district. Such school district disaggregations make traditional desegregation remedies more difficult by further isolating children of different races. In the past few decades, dozens of school districts have seceded to create wealthy districts filled with white children adjacent to poorer districts with children of color. This Note argues that school district secessions harm desegregation efforts and, in turn, the educational achievement of students in those districts. Two school districts — one in Jefferson Coun- ty, Alabama and another in Hamilton County, Tennessee — serve as ex- amples of how secession movements arise and how the conversations pro- gress. Secession proponents often advocate for increased “local control” — seemingly innocuous rhetoric that serves as a guise for racism and other prejudice. This Note argues that school district disaggregation is made far too easy by judicial preoccupation with local control and by the moral- political failure of state legislatures. But it is possible to discourage segre- gative school district disaggregation by reworking the concept of local con- trol so that it prioritizes all children, and by adopting state legislation that promotes consolidated, efficient school districts. -

1 “Race Was a Motivating Factor”: the Rise of Re
1 “Race was a motivating factor”: The Rise of Re-Segregated Schools in the American States Richard Johnson (Lancaster) & Desmond King (Oxford) . 2 Introduction. In the two decades after the Brown v Board of Education (1954) decision, analysis of school desegregation focused on federal, judicial mechanisms. However, as the federal courts withdrew from school integration efforts, state-level mechanisms to advance school desegregation gained greater relevance. The salience of state actions grew during the eight years of the Obama presidency when Republicans gained over 1,000 state legislative seats from the Democrats. As Obama left office, Republicans dominated thirty-two state legislatures and thirty-three governorships, a record high since the New Deal. A major but largely unexamined consequence of this profound shift in state-level partisan control is the resurgence of efforts to re-segregate public education. School integration across the United States has been uneven, but many states responded to the departure of the federal courts from school integration by maintaining integrationist mechanisms. As Republicans gained partisan control during the Obama presidency, state legislatures reversed their earlier initiatives and proposed measures to erect new barriers to integration. One strategy is reviving ‘neighbourhood schools’, a code phrase for schools which reflect narrow, racially homogenous communities rather than more racially heterogeneous school districts (Delmont 2016); the term unabashedly resurrects language from the 1960s when it was used to fight the Brown directive to desegregate (Hackett and King 2017). We examine new re-segregation policies, especially school district secession and anti-busing laws, which have passed in states where Republicans assumed control during the Obama presidency. -

But in recent years it has become increasingly apparent that, while taking the right number of courses is certainly better than not, it is no longer enough to guarantee that students will graduate ready for life after high school. -
Mobile, Alabama
“Choosing Education as a Career” Seminar: Mobile, Alabama In an effort to recruit more racially/ethnically diverse candidates, the COE held a national diverse student recruitment seminar in Mobile, Alabama, on June 7 – 8, 2018, titled “Choosing Education as a Career.” Invitations were extended to middle and high school principals, counselors, and parents in schools across Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Arkansas, and Kentucky. Thirty-seven individuals from six states attended the seminar and learned from MSU COE personnel about admissions, multicultural leadership scholarships, and year-long internship opportunities. The goal was to form partnerships with schools to recruit middle and high school students from underrepresented groups to choose teaching as a career. Some of these schools are now exploring options for working with the MSU EPP. Follow-up will be conducted in the late fall 2018 / early spring 2019 to determine how many students from the schools represented may be choosing education as a career as a result of this effort. INVITATION To: Personalize before sending. From: David Hough, Dean, College of Education, Missouri State Univesity Date: January 12, 2018 / January 16 / January 17 / January 18 / etc. Re: Seminar on Choosing Education as a Career You are invited to attend a Seminar to learn how high school sophomores and juniors can begin planning for a career in education. The Seminar will begin with a reception at 5:00 p.m. followed by a dinner meeting at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 7, 2018. On Friday, June 8, 2018, sessions will begin at 9:00 a.m. -
