Alleging resegregation in Wayne County schools

"The complaint focuses on one of the six districts in the school system that is located in Goldsboro and is almost all black and poor. This district is contrasted with other parts of the school system, including one district that is largely white and not low-income."

Six districts? Seems like a lot .. and who would of guessed that one of them was exclusively white .... could have been Wake if all the systems had not been merged years ago ... I guess we can still resegregate with the right policies.

The Wayne County Public School System is the 19th largest in the state and serves about 19,000 students. The break down is 48% Caucasian, 43% African-American, 6% Hispanic, 2% Asian and less than 1% Indian. It operates 36 schools, broken up into 6 districts. The smallest district has 6 schools. This District, which is one part of the city limits of Goldsboro, serves 2,100 students-- 99.9% of whom are African-American and 94% of whom receive Free/Reduced lunch. In essence, Goldsboro, North Carolina is 50/50 black and white in its census with an integrated City Council, an integrated Air Force base, and a 100% re-segregated school attendance district. This small, virtually all-Black District contrasts with the largest District, which has 5 schools, serves 5,000 students, 90% of whom are Caucasian and only 36% of whom receive Free/Reduced lunch.
