DEDRA ESTELL OVERTON, et al.,

Plaintiffs-Intervenors, 

v.

AUSTIN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTPICT,

Defendant.

CIVIL ACTION 
NO. A-70-CA-80

MOTION FOR HEARING ON REMEDY

Plaintiffs-intervenors Dedra Estell Overton, et al., 

respectfully request that the Court hold a hearing on remedy in 

early March 1979 as required by the Fifth Circuit opinion order­

ing remand of November 21, 1977, 564 F.2d 162, 176, in order to 

consider (a) the adequacy of any joint desegregation plan of the 

parties or, in the alternative, if the parties are unable to 

agree, (b) the adequacy of desegregation plans the parties may 

present and to otherwise hold the evidentiary hearing contemplated 

by the Fifth Circuit. The motion should be granted for the fol-

| lowing reasons:

i. On November 21, 19”7?, in the last appeal, the Fifth

|SCircuit reversed this Court's finding that the school board had

jjnot subjected Mexican-American students to intentional discrimina-
I
il tion, and ordered that the case be remanded for an expeditiousl!;l
|
i! 2 i



| hearing an remedy.

"The district court should give the 
hearing on remedy a high docket priority.
All parties snould be free to introduce 
such additional testimony and other evidence 
as the district court may consider appro­
priate. All remedial measures currently in 
effect shall remain in affect pending the 
district court's decision on remedy."

564 F .2d 162, 176. Rehearing en banc was denied September 7,

1978.

2. In the interim, the parties have attempted to agree to 

a desegregation plan that could be jointly presented to the court. 

These efforts are continuing. Recently the Tri-Ethnic Committee

has made available its good offices in aid of this effort.

3. During these i  ^ r m a l  efforts, the Court has not held any 

hearing on remedy. However, it would be desirable to all the 

parties to put a time limit on informal resolution in light of

! the passage of time, and to establish a hearing date for thei
Court to consider a joint desegregation plan o r to hold an evi-

]j dentiary hearing on such plan as the parties nay present.

4. Plaintiffs-intervenors believe that a hearing date in
!
\ early March 1979 would be appropriate because it would put the
I
I parties on notice in sufficient time in advance, and would permit !

o IJ  the Court to resolve the remedy issue in enough time to implement I 

| a plan for the 1979-1980 school year.
I

CONCLUSIONj !
For the above reasons, the motion for a hearing on remedy in !

Ij early March 1979 should ba granted.

Respectfully submitted.

It appearing to the Court that this cause v;as returned to 

this Court for a hearing on remedy by the Fifth Circuit Court of 
Appeals, that subsequent to the remand of this cause the attorneys

an attempt to agree on a school desegregation plan to piesent to 

the Court; that during these attempts at settlement the Tri-Ethnic 

Committee has assisted the parties; that on November 30, 1978, 

after noting that past meetingo between the parties had yet to 

produce a joint desegregation plan, the Plaintiffs-Inteivenors 

moved for a hearing on remedy; that the attorneys for the parties met 

with the Court in chambers on January 25, 1979, to discuss a 

schedule for completion of discovery and hearing; that at said 

meeting attorneys for the parties indicated that they would 

attempt to agree on such a schedule and present such schedule 

to the Court; that according to the motion filed on April 2, 1979, 

the attorneys have been unable to agree on such a schedule and 

Plaintiff and Plaintiffs-Interver.ors seek a Court established

The purpose of this plan is -•> propose a method of desegregating 

the schools of the Austin Independent School District (AISD) for pupils/ 

students in grades one through twelve. The AISD is a triethnjc oasorrct 

with approximately fifty-eight (53) percent Anglo, twenty—frv»s (2:5) per­

cent Mexican—American and seventeen (17) percent Negro. Sinc<= 19/0 when 

this case was originally filed, many plans have been drawn yet most 

schools in the AISD are still racially isolated. In Dr. John A. Finger's 

1972 AISD desegregation plan, he proposed the standard for individual 

school desegregation that each school should have at least fifty (50) 

percent Anglo enrollment and at least twenty-five (25) percent, minority 

enrollment— the 50% to 75% Anglo enrollment standard- There should be a 

clear and compelling reason for allowing a school to deviate from the 50%

to 75% Anglo star^’rd. However, in 1973-79 only twenty-eight 2̂8) of
0 Othe AISD eighty—two (at) schools met the standard— slightly more than one 

third of the schools. Only fifteen (15) of the fifty-four (54) elementary 

schools-met the standard. Only three (3) of the six (6) sixth grade 

centers met the standard, although most pupils attending these schools
N

were transported to the centers. Only six (6) of the eleven (11) junior
5

high schools met the standard, and only four (4) of the *ke#en (14) high 

schools met the standard. (See Attachment A.)

Due to the increased percentage of minority enrollment since 1972, 

I cropose a standard for individual school desegregation that would in 

effect be a range created by + 10% of the percentage of Anglo enrollment 

in the district. Since the Anglo enrollment at this time is fifty-eight 

(58) percent, the minimum point (58% minus 10%) would be rorty—eight (48) 

percent and the maximum point (58% plus 10%) would be sixty—eight (63) 

percent. The standard upon which this plan is built us that ea. h indivi­

dual school should have an Anglo enrollment of forty-eight (43) percent

A-2
29



2

to sixty-eight (68) percent or there should be a clear and compelling 

reason for not having that enrollment. In short, this standard is a 

self-correcting range based on a deviation of +_10% of the district per­

centage of Anglo enrollment. With this change in standard (from the. 

ger 50% to 75%) I propose that the plan^preparaC. by me on November 22, 

1976, is the best possible remedy for all of the students in the AISD 

(See Attachment b ) V  _  -- -

This is a. partial plan dealing with the nn gf hlacks
p— — y —j

in the AISD. It permits a plan to be developed for the Mexican-American 

pupils/students in the AISD. Using the aforementioned broad standard for 

the pupil assignment phase of the many- pconged task to create a unitary 

school system in the AISDr^fchis plan is designed to merely demonstrate

portunity, several different plans could be developed using this standard. 

The most effective plans could probably be drawr* by AISD staff and adminis­

trative ipersonnel who know best the terrain, the roads, and the whereabouts 

of pupil: in the AISD. In the end the school svstem staff must be given 

the responsibility of refining and adjusting the various elements of this 

feasibility study.

Presently, the AISD is mainly comprised of K-5 elementary schools, 

sixth grade centers, grades seven and eight junior high schools, and 

grades nine through twelve high schools. There are a few variations in 

that there are a few K-3 and X, 4-6 schools and two 6-8 junior high schools. 

But, basically, the AISD is organized under the 5-1-2-4 plan. This dese • 

gregation plan does not seek to do harm to the present organizational plan. 

It does appear, however, that there is adequate space in the elementary 

schools to house the sixth grade with the other five elementary grades, 

eliminating the massive use ĴT sixth grade centers- If this is done, the

r\
o U A - i



3

organizational plan for the district would be 6-2-4 or seme variation should 

the district resort to pairing and clustering elementary schools, and in 

so doing, resort to primary (1-3) and intermediate (4-6) schools. In any 

event such an action would rot do harm to a 6-2-4 basic organizational 

plan. The naturally desegrnyat^d schools, i.e., those with forty-eight 

(48) percent to sixty-eight (68) percent Anglo enrollments, would be un­

touched by this plan.

For an idea of the geographical dispersion of the AISD schools by

organizational level, see ̂ Attachment C- ;
r

A. primary enrollment data source used in this plan is the ”1978-73 

Enrollment Breakdown School--By Grade Ethnic Percentage— By School First 

Six-Weeks Report^ published by and reported to the Courts by the AISD (see 

Attachment d )/. The school building capacity source used in this plan is' 

the "School Building Capacities— Austin Independent School District" pub—  ̂

lished by the (AISD) Department of Planning and Programming, August 17,

1978)and reported to the Courts by the AISD- (sea Attachment S) - This plan 

is sensitive to (1) race (adhering to the forty-eight (48) percent to sixty- 

eight (68) percent Anglo majority standard) ; (2) size of school (adjusting 

boundaries or transferring pupils when necessarf); (3)^eguity_ (attempting 

to balance the burden of implementing the plan imeng black and white pupils) 

(4) simplicity (conforming with the- organizational structure that the AISD

is currently operating); and (5) economy (transferring, pairing, and clus­

tering pupils in the most cost-effective manner)

THE ELuElENTAHY SCHOOLS

Identification of Elementary Scnools. The first step in this feasinility 

study was the identification of the AISD schools that would be involved in 

this plan. For reasons explained in detail later in the study, it was de­

cided to refrain from involving <11 of the elementary schools south of the



4

Colorado River and the seven, elementary school districts forming a west- 

east Corridor immediately north of the Colorado River— Mathews, Pe<-se, 

Sanchez, Zavala, Metz, Brooke, and Gcvalle— the latter group being over­

whelmingly Mexican-American. Therefore, this study involves the t.’irty- 

one elementary schools in north Austin and one of these— Summitt— was 

elected out because it is a suburban school already isolated from most of 

the pupils living in the Summitt' Elementary School District. It (tummitt) 

is eliminated with the understanding that there should be no further class­

room. construction or placement of portables on this site. If 'Lhe olemen— 

tary school grows to the extent that the school is overcrowded, thun (1) 

district, boundaries must be redrawn to place excess pupils in another al­

ready existing (as of 1979) elementary school district south of Summitt 

or (2) the grade structure may be changed to K—3 or to K, 4-6 with the 

pupils in one of the levels remaining at Summitt and the pupils in the 

other level b°i_g transferred to now existing elementary school (s) south 

of the present Summitt School District..

Determination of Grades to be Assigned to Each School. For purposes 

of developing this plan., elementary pupils are treated as though

they will be attending the elementary school in the district they live.

The pupils living in the central corridor elementary school districts will

attend elementary schools in their respective districts in grades K-6.

The pupils living in East Austin and the north and west fringes of Austin

will be attending K-3 or K, 4-6 schools in their respective districts,
th.Six grade schools will not be used in this plan. The grades assigned to A

each school are as follows:

K-3 Schools K, 4-6 Schools K-6 Schools

Casis/Dill

Gullett 
Highland Park

The major thrust of this proprosal in the desegregation of elementary 

schools in the AISD is that certain black schools in East Austin be paired 

and clustered with certain white schools in North and West Austin to result 

in desegregating most such schools in the district. Also, several transfers 

are mada between adjoining- or nearby elementary school districts in order 

to 'jalance school capacity'. The kinder martens would remain un inched in 

this pran. Certain elementary school districts would become grades 1-3 

elementary school districts and others woula become grades 4-6 elementary 

school districts. The principle of equity is sought by setting up one set 

of such districts in both the black and the white elementary school districts. 

In this, way no single group can validly claim that it is carrying the burden 

of the school district's compliance with the law. Both Anglo and Negro 

pupils would be bussed at the same ages. For example, seme Negro pupils 

residing- in East Austin would be bussed ao some North Austin schools for 

grades 4-6; some Anglo pupils living un West Austin would be bussed to some 

East Austin schools for grades 4-6; seme Negro pupils in East Austin would 

be bussed to some West Ausair. schools for grades 1-3; and some Anglo pupils 

residing in North Austin, vculd be bussed to East Austin for grades 1-3.

Much care is given to meeting aie principle of equity in bearing the bur­
den of desegregation.

Elementary Schools in East Austin

East Austin is aptly referred to as brown East Austin (close to the 

Northern banks of the Colorado River where many Mexican-Americans reside) 

and black East Austin (East—Centra/, of the city) . Black East Austin is 

the core of emphasis for this plan Tiese ten (10) black elementary 

schools are in this area of East Austin:

bers. These districts would be restructured into (K-3) and (K, 4-6) dis­

tricts as would be the ten (10) district: in black East Austii:

The following districts would be paired to ccnpris

cluster:

Each school would keep its kindergarten pupils and the pupils pre­

sently assigned, to that school under this plan. In addition, each school 

would receive pupils from its paired school (s) in the other cluster. For 

example, Norman, a black East Austin school, is designated in this plan as 

a K-3 school to be paired with Walnut Creek, a North Austin school- Norman 

would keep its kindergarten pupils and most of its pupils in grades 1-3. 

Because of space problems, thirteen (13) Norman pupils in grades 1-3 would 

be assigned to walk to adjoining Sims Elementary School. Norman's Negro

pupils in grades 4 and 5 and the sixth graders living in the Norman district 

who are now attending another school would be transferred to Walnut Creek- 

Walnut Creek, of course, would keep the pupils in grades 4-6 in its school 

district. In East Austin Anglo and Mexican-American pupils presently 

assigned to Noman and the nine other elementary schools affected by this 

plan would attend an adjoining East Austin school rather than being trans­

ferred to a North or a West Austin School. An Anglo or Mexican-American 

fourth, grader in the Norman district would be assigned to Pecan Springs. 

He/she may opt to attend Walnut Creek or another school on the majority- 

minority transfer plan. Cn the other hand, a Negro or Mexican-American 

third grade pupil living in the Walnut Creek district would be assigned to 

Cook Elementary School. These options should be available to the extent 

that they do no harm to meeting the desegregation standard.

Elementary Schools South of the Colorado River

The geographical area south of the Colorado River has just over 

five hundred (500) Negro pupils in fifteen elementary schools. Though 

most (12 of 15) of these: schools are majority Anglo, the remaining three 

(of 15) are majority Mexican-American, and most (9 of 15) have heavy 

Ilexican-American pupil populations. This plan leaves the fifteen elemen­

tary schools south of the Colorado River as they are presently populated 

with the observation that, except in a few fast-growing elementary school 

districts, it appears that the sixth graders now residing in each such 

district, could well.be assigned to the K-5 elementary school nearest their 

residence. Should more space be required, the AISD could use the present 

sixth giade centers as K-6 elementary schools by redrawing districts.

SIXTH GRADE CENTERS

As stated in the foregoing section, sixth grade centers should be 

abolished in the AISD because (1) they are not reducing racial isolation;

(2) there is ample space in the elementary schools housing K-5 programs 

in each sixth grader* s home elementary school district to seat sixth 

graders; (3) transportation resources would be freed for use in implementing 

this plan in East, NorLh and West Austin; and (5) placing the sixth grade 

with other grades (in this instance grades 4 and 5) should enhance the 

quality of the educational ptogram.

Assignments should be made to ensure that at least 100 Negro stu­

percent of the enrollment in each junior high school. This critical mass 

should, guarantee a feeling of identity for .each Negro student and should 

provide black, students with the leverage to "make a difference” in school 

affairs. For example, such numbers should make it probable that bLack /  

representation would be in school organizations, extra curricular -j.fairs 

and other school related activities. For all students enrolled in each 

junior high school, such black presence should provide them with a micro­

cosm of the Austin community in which citizenship can be learned through 

day-to-day activities and interactions.

Sealing Junior High School should be rebuilt and utilized is a

regular- junior high ̂ school. The AISD should assess the feasibility of

opeh2hg"Kealing as. a magnet junior high school for parents who want their 

children to attend a fundamental strongly academic junior high school 

where discipline, grooming (including dress codes), good manners, and grade 

promotion based on skills mastery are the critical goals stressed. Such 

a- school- should meet the racial standard set for all other schools in the 

AISD.

SENIOR HIGH SCHOOLS

There are nine high schools in the AISD of which two are majority- 

minority— Johnston and Travis. Though no high school is at the rated total 

capacity, only Hast Austin's Johnston High School is as low as 60% of rated 

total capacity. It would appear that more students would opt to attend 

school in East Austin if one of these unprioritized alternatives is followed

(1) Clone Johnston and build a new high school in East 
Austin?

(2) Close Johnston and renovate old Anderson High School 
to be used as a high school in East Austin; or

(3) Renovate Johnston.

T h e  p l a n t

Johnston does not enjoy a good image as a high, school. is viewed as a

is viewed as undesirable by many.

Any high, school in East Austin must not only have an upgraded phy­

sical facility,, it must also have an upgraded educational program with a 

faculty recognized as strong and effective. Such an improved facility may 

well become a magnet school to provide special programs for any U S D  stu­

dents.

As in junior high schools there shouJ d. be a minimum population, of 

Hegro students in high schools to ensure leverage and to enhance educational 

quality in the schools. In high schools the size of the nine in the AISD 

there should be at least. 200 Negroes in each school. This figure (200) 

works out to. .'represent a range of from eight (8) percent to fourteen (14) 

percent black students in each high school.

Il-TERVENOR'S DESEGREGATION PIAN FOR 

AUSTIN, TEXAS

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this plan is to provide some broad recommendations 
for the pupil assignment phase of a multi-phased effort i e create a uni­
tary school system in Austin, Texas. To demonstrate thac these broad 
recommendations are feasible and can be effective, specific methods of 
implementation are shown. However, the school system staff must be given 
the responsibility of refining and adjusting the various elements of the 
recommendations. A cursory attempt is made to deal with such vital phases 
in the disestablishment of segregated school systems as (1) curricular 
emphases (mainly bilingual programs), (2) staff assignments, (3) other 
administrative staff and board policies, and (4) a study of certaxn 
school buildings and sites. However, a more thorough study and resolu­
tion must be made of all of the foregoing phases.

Careful attention was given to the instructions of the Order of the 
Firth Circuit Court of Appeals (May, 1976), the Desegregation Plan and 
guidelines proposed by Dr. John A. Finger, Jr. (August, 1972), and the 
Tentative Consolidated Desegregation Plan prepared by the Austin Indepen­
dent School District (August, 1976). The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals 
directed that a unitary desegregation plan be developed along the guide­
lines proposed by Dr. Finger. Dr. Finger proposed that the Austin schools 
should be desegregated from grade one through grade twelve. The Tenta­
tive Consolidated Desegregation Plan, proposed by the AI3D would leave the 
majority of the primary pupils in racial isolation (see Attachment I).
It is felt to concur with the AISD's tentative plan on the decision to 
leave the primary schools in racial isolation would be unacceptable.

The AISD plan for junior high schools should include Martin and Healing 
and the plan for senior high schools should provide for Austin's next new 
senior high school to be constructed in southeast Austin.



There is no doubt about the educational soundness of beginning the
desegregation process at the earliest possible grade level. Any desegre­
gation plan which considers the quality of educational opportunity as 
the raison d'etre of the integration process must provide for the desegre­
gation process to begin as early in children's lives as possible. The 
literature abounds with recommendations based upon imperical evidence 
that childrens' educational development, and even the development of 
their capacity for educational growth, begin at an early age. Although 
children do not usually learn to read, write, or compute much before five 
or six years of age, they do jtart or fail to start to learn in more 
fundamental areas that seem to determine directly how well they will 
later learn to read, write, and cipher.

If one has learned anything from the well-do cut:_..ted increases in 
secondary school student disruptions, it should be that racial integra­
tion should begin earlier, definitely not after pupils have experienced 
racial isolation in the early school years. Socially as well as academi­
cally, it is important to desegregate at as early an age as possible.

Since the kindergarten programs are not uniformly offered throughout 
Austin's elementary schools, it is advisable that kindergarten pupils 
not be transported at public expense to desegregate the schools. There­
fore, it is proposed that all kindergarten pupils would remain in their 
present schools. When computations are made to indicate the extent of 
desegregation in a school, kindergarten enrollments are treated sepa­
rately.

The AISD's tentative desegregation plan stresses the need for equity 
and economy. This is fully agreeable. It is agreeable for the AISD plan 
to exempt K-o schools that meet the 50% to 75% Anglo enrollment test;

6 a A - 4 t



however, it appears other schools must meet the same test. The AISD 
proposed grade organization— K-3 and 4-6— is clearly workable, except 
kindergarten programs should be added to the 4-6 schools allowing kinder­
garten pupils to continue to attend their present schools.

THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS (K-6)
We propose that the school district be divided into three geographic 

clusters and within these clusters elementary schools be paired— one 
being K-3, the other K, 4-6. Because of building capacities, many paired 
schools will involve adjoining schools with partial enrollments assigned 
to other schools. The three clusters should be (1) South Cluster, in­
cluding all of the elementary schools south of the Colorado River, (2) 
the East-West Cluster, '' ncluding selected minority schools on the East and 
selected Anglo schools on the west, and (3) the East-North Cluster, 
including selected.minority schools on the East and selected Anglo schools 
on the North. Utilizing clusters decreases the length of the bus rides 
and clearly identifies the "other" area that children and parents will be 
required to identity.

The South Cluster
In the area south of the Colorado River with the Allison Elementary 

School District on the east and the Oak Hill Elementary School District 
on the west, there are sixteen elementary districts and the sixth grade 
center, Joslin. Under the rationale for excluding schools already dese­
gregated, six schools— Linder, Travis Heights, Pleasant Hills Houston,
St. Elmo, and Odom— meet the criteria and their districts are exempt from 
further consideration for desegregation. The other ten elementary schools
have enrollments as follows:



Grades 1-3 Grades 4-6

Minority Anglo Total Minority Anglo Total 
1081 1668 2749 1209 1880 3089

This amounts to a 61% Anglo and a 39% minority distribution. Though 
Joslin should be used as an elementary school, it is not included in this 
specific example for housing the south cluster pupils. A more detailed 
study of buildings and sites in the south cluster may result in a deci­
sion to close Barton Hills Elementary School because of its small size or 
to close some other immediately adjoining school because of building or 
site deficiencies. When this is done, the pupil population assigned to 
Joslin must meet the tests of this plan. Allan Elementary School in the 
East-North Cluster may be utilized to alleviate the overcrowded condition 
as specified by this plan at Allison Elementary School. Thes*3 ten 
elementary school pupil populations may be desegregated in this manner.

A. Five schools may house K-3 programs (kindergarten and grades
1. 2, and 3).
1.. Allison K-3
2. Dawson K-3
3. Manchaca K-3
4. Sunset Valley K-3
5. Zilker K-3
Five schools may house K, 4-6 programs (kindergarten and grades
4, 5, and 6). Williams will be a 4-6 school.

The East-West Cluster
Most of the elementary schools in the north central part of the city 

meet the test of desegregation. For the East-West Cluster, selectee, ele­
mentary schools with predominant minority enrollments are matched w\th 
westside schools with predominant Anglo enrollments. Fifteen elementary 
schools have enrollments as follows:

Grades 1-3 Grades 4-6
Minority Anglo Total Minority Anglo Total 
1375 1780 3155 1591 ' 1915 3506

This amounts to a 56% Anglo and a 44% minority distribution. Martir. Ele­
mentary School should be used as an K, 4-6 elementary school to relieve 
crowded conditions this plan specifies at Metz, Sanchez, and Zavallu Ele­
mentary Schools. 3aker Elementary School may be used as an elementary 
school as long as the punil population assigned meets the tests of cue 
plan. Allan Elementary School in the East-North Cluster may be utilized
to alleviate the overcrowded conditions as specified by this 'plan at Brooke
Elementary School. These fifteen elementary school pupil populations
may be desegregated in this manner:

A. Six schools from the East were selected. Three should be K-3 
and three K, 4-6.
1. Blackshear K-3
2. Brooke K-3
3. Campbell K-3
4. Metz K, 4-6
5. Sanchez K, 4-6
6. Zavalla K, 4-6

B. Nine schools from the West were selected. Three should be K-3 
and six K, 4-6. Casis and Dill would be viewed as one school in 
the pairings. Many of these students would not be bused but 
would walk to the school in the adjoining district.

The East-North Cluster
Excluding the elementary' schools in the north-central and eastern

section of the city that meet the 50%-ho 75% Anglo enrollment test for
desegregation, the East-North Cluster :.s composed of selected eastside
elementary schools with predominant minority enrollments and selected
northside elementary schools with predominant Anglo enrollments.
Fifteen East-North elementary schools have enrollments as follows:

Grades 1-3 Grades 4-6
Minority Anglo Total Minority Anglo Total 
1651 1952 3576 16fl 1841 3522

This amounts to a 54% Anglo and a 46% minority distribution. Allan Ele­
mentary School should be used as a K-3 school relieving the overcrowding 
at Govalle and Ortega Elementary Schools as well as the o\ercrowding 
at Allison (South Cluster) and Brooke (East-West Cluster)-- Elementary 
Schools. Read and Webb Elementary Schools may be used as replacements 
for or to relieve immediately adjoining elementary schools. Allan, Read 
and Webb's new pupil assignments must meet the tests for desegregated 
schools. These fifteen elementary o_hools pupil populations may be de­
segregated in this manner:

A. Seven schools from the East were selected. Three should be 
K—3, one 4-6, and three K, 4-6. Rosewood should not house 
kindergarten children.
1. Govalle K-3
2. Maplewood K-3
3. Ortega K-3
4. Rosewood 4-6
5. Oak Springs K, 4-6
6. Norman K, 4-6
7. Sims K, 4-6

B. Eight schools from the North were selected. Three should be 
K-3 and five K, 4-6.
1. Summitt K-3

Impact on Transportation
During 1976-77, AISD will transport 6172 elementary school pupils. 

The intervenor's desegregation plan requires that 9b',0 pupils be trans­
ported. It is not possible to. determine the extent of duplications in 
these two figures or the extent to which the exempt school enrollments 
require transportation. It is possible, however, to estimate that this 
plan may call for transporting an additional 3200 pupils. A careful 
study of the plan would indicate that equity and 'economy were observed 
factors. Though minorities are bused at a rate higher than Anglos, this 
is arithmetically the only way to desegregate these schools.

No one race carries the burden of transportation by grade or by dis­
tance. Pairing and clustering help to ensure that students who were 
transported in grades 1-3 (for example, students from Williams to Alli­
son) were in school.in grades 4-6 with students who were transported 
from their 1-3 schools» For example,, some Allison 4-6 pupils were trans­
ported to Williams.

The chart on page 19 shows the number and percentage by race, 
cluster, and grade level of pupils to be bused.

3ilingual Education
A desegregation plan which is designed to work must treat certain 

curriculum emphases, for teaching and learning are the premier goals of 
an educational system. The expansion of kindergarten programs, the up­
grading of remedial reading programs, the building of a broad program 
of studies in each school to include college preparatory as well as 
terminal programs are all among the curricula considerations that must 
be treated and resolved in a new way to effectuate a desegregation plan.

This preliminary plan will only treat bilingual education, a cur­
riculum emphasis that must be given strong support in Austin, a school 
system with a heavy Mexican-American constituency. There is at present 
a recognized bilingual education program in certain Austin schools.
This program must be continued, expanded, and improved upon so that each 
child in need of such experiences will have that opportunity.

The pupil assignment plan allows for groups of pupils for one school, 
e.g., Allison, fo be transferred to other schools, e.g., Williams,
Houston, and Cunningham, in such numbers that a bilingual program at 
the new schools would be cost-effective.

During the 1976-77 school year, the AISD should work with bilingual 
education expert, Dr. Jose Cardenas, to resolve the problems of (1) how 
to assign bilingual students to asst re the enhancement of the present 
program, (2) how to design a. plan to ensure that all students with 
English language deficiencies will be identified and provided an appro­
priate program.

THE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOLS (7-8)

The Consolidated Desegregation Plan prepared by the AISD provided 

for the ur.e of the following ten junior high schools (grades 7-8).

1. Bedichek
2. Burnet
3. Dobie
4. Fulmore
5. Lamar
6. Martin
7. Murchison
8. 0. Henry
9. Pearce

10. Porter

This plan eliminates Allan as a junior high school leaving only 

Martin in East Austin. With only one junior high school in this area, an 

overwhelming transportation burden is placed upon the junior high school 

students there— most of whom are minority. A partial answer to this 

would be the inclusion of Healing Junior High School in the Plan and the 

utilization of Healing as a junior high school facility

Healing would receive minority students from the immediate geogra­

phical area and would receive Anglo students from noncontiguous zones 

within the present Burnet, Murchison, and 0. Henry junior high school 

districts. Ehe optimum capacity of Healing must be determined and appro­

priate work must be accomplished in order to prepare it for student 

occupancy by August, 1977.

THE HIGH SCHOOLS (9-12')

The AISD Consolidated Desegregation Plan for high schools satis­

fies the tests that Plaintiffs would apply tr it. The plan is practi­

cal and it utilizes well the present facilities of the AISD. Yet the 

transportation burden of minority students, especially those in East 

Austin, is much greater than the burden of Austin Anglos. Except for 

the comparatively small number of minorities who will be able to walk 

to Martin in grades 7-8 (about 600) and the undetermined number who will 

be able to walk to Kealing in grades 7-8 (estimate 400), most East 

Austin students will be transported to school five years of the f:.rst 

eight years of their schooling. In high school, approximately 1,000 

East Austin minorities will be able to walk to L. B. Johnston. There­

fore, the typical East Austin minority student will be transportec from 

approximately trine years of the twelve years he is in school while the 

typical Austin Anglo will be transported at least two to four yeais 

less than the t>tical East Austin studer*..

Because of this violation of equity, economy, and because of the 

deliterious effect on neighborhood integrity, it is recommended that 

the next high school constructed in the AISD be situated in the area 

bounded approximately by south of Manor Road, north of 7th Street, East 

of Interstate 35, and west of Webberville Road.

STAFF ASSIGNMENTS

Faculty and staff must be distributed so tnat no school is identifi­

able by race. Austin should strive t' wards increasinq the number of minority 

faculty and staff, especially Mexican-Americin. In 1977-78 the needs of 

the bilingual program would require an imbalance of Mexican-American 

teachers in the schools where the bilingual programs are instituted. How­

ever, a strong-recruitment program must be initiated for the employment of 

enough Mexican-American faculty and staff so that each school will have 

an equitable number of staff members.

In addition to balance m  race, there should be balance in experience 

and educational level at each school. New teachers cannot be assigned to 

certain schools with the understanding that when they acquire tenure they 

will be allowed to transfer zo other schools.

OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF AND BOARD POLICIES

During the 1976-77 school year, a review of administrative staff and

boa-.d'policies must be made to ensure that such policies effectuate- the 

desegregation plan. Some of these policies wou]d include:

SCHOOL BUILDINGS AND SITES

To implement the foregoing student assignment recommendations, cer­

tain schools are overloaded and others are under-utilized. Wnen the final 

assignments are made, a decision must be made to either (1) utilize schools 

that have been abandoned (as in the Sanchez district, it might be feasible 

to use Palm), or (2) add portables.

Kealing Junior High School must be given massive rehabilitation in 

the next several months to house seventh and eighth grades.

The next high school constructed in Austin should be in East Austin 

in the area bounded approximately by south of Manor Road, north of 7th 

Street, east of Interstate 35, and west of Webberville Road.

EXTENT Or RACIAL ISOLATION IN X-3 SCHOOLS

The AISD'S tentative desegregation plan leaves the K-3 schools in 

racial isolation.' Of the 7398 white pupils a’.tending the 32 K-3 schools 

listed on page 5 of tiie Plan, 89%, or 6593, of these white pupils attend 

schools that are 76% white and 41%, or 3042, of these white pupils attend 

schools that are over 90% white.

A desegregation plan built on this foundation would delay the dese­

gregation process until the deleterious effects of desegregation have 

set in and would make a mockery of the positive educational values of 

integration.
