III. 

DESEGREGATION OF FACULTY AND OTHER STAFF 
  

The School Board shall announce and implement the following policies: 3 

l. The principals, teachers, teacher-aides and other staff who work 
directly with children at a school shall be so assigned for the school 
year 1976-71 and subsequent years that in no case will the racial com- 
position of & staff indicate that a school is intended for Negro students 
or white students. For the 1970-7! school year the district shall assign 
the staff described above so that the ratio of Negro to white teachers in 
each school, and the ratio of other staff in each, are substantially the 
same as each such ratic is to the teachers and other staff, respectively,’ 
in the entire school system, 

The school district shall, to the extent necessary to carry out this desecgre- s 
g gation plan, direct members of its staff as a condition of continued employ - 

ment to accept new assignments, 

2. Staff members who work directly with children, and professional staff 
who work on the administrative level will be hired, assigned, promoted, paid} 
demoted, dismissed, and otherwise treated without regard to race, color, or 
national origin, except to the extent necessary to correct discrimination. 

3. If there is to be a yr 
teacher-aides, or other p 
which will result in a di 

eduction in the number of principals, teachers, 
i 1 staff employed by the school district 

smissal or demotion of any such staff members, the 
or demoted must be selected on the basis of 

objective and reasonable non-discriminatory standards from among all the staff 
of the school district. In addition if there is any such dismissal or demotion, no staff vacancy may be filled through recruitment of a person of a race, 
color, or naticnal origin different from that of the individual dismissed or 
demoted, until each displaced staff member who is qualified has had an oppor- tunity to fill the vacancy and has failed to accept an offer to do so. 

Prior to such a reduction, the school board will develop or require the develop- 
ment of non-racial objective criteria to bz used in selecting the staff momber 
who is to be dismissed or demoted. These criteria shall be available for 
public inspection and shall be retained by the school district. The school district also shall record and preserve the evaluation of staff members under the criteria. Such evaluation shall be made available upon request to the dismissed or demoted employee. 

"Demotion" as used above includes any reassignment (1) under which the staff member receives less pay or has less responsibility than under the assign- ment he held previously, (2) which requires a lesser degree of skill than did the assignment he held previously, or (3) under vhich the staff member is asked 
to teach a subject or grade other than one for which he is certified or for 
which he has had substantial experience within a reasonably current period. In general and dependi h 
& reasonable period, 

ng upon tae subject matter involved, five years is such 

 



IV. 

TRANSPORTATION 
  

The ‘transportation system shall be completely re-examined regularly by 
the superintendent, his staff, and the school board. Bus routes and the 
assignment of students to buses will be designed to insure the transpor- 
tation of all eligible pupils on a non-segregated and otherwise non- 
discriminatory basis, 

/ 

V. 

SCHOOL. CONSTRUCTION AND SITE SELECTION 
  

The size and location of new school buildings and additions to existing 
buildings can significantly affect desegregation now and in the future. 

All school construction, school consolidation, and site selection (including 
the location of any temporary classrooms) in this system shall be done in a » 
manner which will prevent the recurrence of the dual school structure once 
this desegregation plan is implemented, 

YY. 

AJORITY TO MINORITY TRANSFER POLICY 
  

Whenever there shall exist schools containing a majority of Negro students, 
this school district shall permit a student (Negro or white) attending a 
school in which his race is in the majority to choose to attend another 
school where space is available, and where his race is in a minority. 

 



VII. 

ATTENDANCE OUTSIDE SYSTEM OF RESIDENCE 
  

If the School District grants transfers to students living 
in the district for their attendance at public schools outside 
the district, or if it permits transfers into the district of 
students who live outside the district, it shall do so on a 
non-discriminatory basis, except that it shall not consent to 
transfers where the cumulative effect will reduce desegregation 
in either district or reinforce the dual school system. 

 



V111. 

SUGGESTIONS FOR PLAN IMPLEMENTATION 
    

Successful implementation of desegregation plans largely depends upon local 

leadership and good faith in complying with mandates of the Courts and the 

laws upon which the Courts act. The following suggestions are offered to 

assist local officials in planning for implementation of desegregation orders. 

Community 
  

1. The Superintendent and Board of Education should frankly and fully 

inform all citizens of the community about the legal requirements 

for school desegregation and their plans for complying with these 

legal requirements. a 

The Board of Education should issue a public statement clearly 

setting forth its intention to abide by the law and comply with 

orders of the Court in an effective and educationally responsible 

manner, 

School officials should seck and encourage support and understanding 

of the press and community organizations representing both races. 

The Board of Education, or some other appropriate governmental unit, 

should establish a bi-racial advisory committee to advise the Board 

of Education and its staff throughout the implementation of the 

desegregation plan. Such committee should seek to open up community 

understanding and communication, to assist the Board in interpreting 

legal and educational requirements to the public. 

The Superintendent should actively seek greater involvement of parents 

of both races through school meetings, newsletters, an active and bi- 

racial P.T.A., class meetings, parent conferences, and through home 

visits by school personnel. 

6. The Superintendent and Board of Education should regularly report 

the community on progress in implementing the descgregation plan. 

School Personnel 
  

1. The Superintendent should provide all personnel copies of the 

desegregation plan and arrange for meetings where the personnel 

will have an opportunity to hear it explained. 

The Board of Education should issue a policy statement setting forth 

in clear terms the procedures it will follow in reassignment of the 

personnel (see section on Desegregation of Staff),  



Assignments of staff for the school year should be made as 
quickly as possible with appropriate followings by school 
principals to assure both welcome and support for personnel 
new to each school, Invitations to visit school before the 
new school year begins should be offered. 

The Superintendent should see that a speéial orientation 
program is planned and carried out for both the professional 
and non-professional staffs (including bus drivers, cafeteria 
workers, secretaries and custodians) preparatory to the new 
school year. He should make every effort to familiarize ncw 
and reassigned staff with facilities, services, and building 
policies, and prepare them to carry out their important role 
in a constructive manner. The Superintendent should direct 
each principal to see that each teacher new to a school is 
assigned for help and guidance to a teacher previously assigned 
to that school. Each such pair of teachers should have an oppor- 
tunity to meet before the school year actually begins, 

The Superintendent should arrange an in-service training program 
during the school year to assist personnel in resolving difficulties 
and improving instruction throughout the implementation period. 
Help in doing this is available from the South Missis ssippi In- 
Service Consulting Center at Hattiesburg, Mississippi. 

It is important that, through personal observations, students see 
that nonprofessional service positions in their schools are not for 
members of one race and that harmonious working relationships can 
exist between members of both races. The Superintendent and Board 
of Education should therefore take all necessa ry steps to assure 
that all staffs are bi-racial. 

 



Instructional Program 
  

1. Each principal should be required to appoint biracial faculty 

committees to study end, as necessary, revise each area of the 

curriculum to assure better learning opportunities for all stu- 

dents, This should become a continuous activity in each school 

and throughout the district, : 

Student evaluation policies and procedures should be reviewed: 

continuously for areas in need of improvement and adjustment to 

encourage the educational growth and motivation of students. 

Remedial programs in reading and mathematics skills, as appro- 

priate, should be introduced and/or expanded for all students 

in need of special help. Such a program should supplement reg- 

ular course offerings and assignments of students. 

Grouping procedures should be reviewed and revised as necessary 

to assure they support the spirit as well as letter of desegre- 

gation plan the district has accepted responsibility for imple- 

menting in good faith. 

Participation in extracurricular activities by students of 

both races should be actively encouraged by administrators and 

teachers as a means for developing school spirit and a feeling 

of belonging. 

School organizations - student government, cheerleaders, musi- 

cal organizations, athletic teams-must be operated on a nondis- 

criminitory basis and should include students of both races. 

‘Guidance counselors should be oriented and urged to plan a 

leading role in successful implementation of the desegregation 

plan, 

The curriculum should be reviewed and, as necessary, revised 

to provide recognition of Negro history, culture and contri- 

butions to our society. Library books which deal with such 

subjects should be added to school book collections. 

Vocational education offerings should be reviewed and improved 

as a means of providing students of both races with education 

relevant to vocational interests and as a means of reducing 

dropouts.  



  

10, 

11, 

Headstart or similar preschool programs for children of both 

races should be implemented, 

Use of Federal and State education funds should be planned 

comprehensively for maximum educational benefit to all eligible 

children, 

STUDENTS | 

1. 

[ 

The Superintendent should direct each principal to hold special 

orientation programs welcoming students who will be new to a 

school, before the regular school year begins, 

The Superintendent should require each principal to see that 

students are frankly and fully informed about the desegregation 

plan and their responsibilities to help carry it out. Each 

principal should seek to establish rapport and communication 

links with new students to encourage mutual understanding and 

confidence. 

The Superintendent should direct each principal to establish 

a student-faculty human relations ccmmittee representing both 
races to aid in the successful implementation of desegregation. 

All school staff and members of the student body should exert 
extra effort to assure the full participation of all students 

of both races in extra-curricular programs, including when 

appropriate the provision of a "late bus" for those staying 

after school to participate in such programs. 

Each principal should request teachers to make themselves 
available to students outside of regular class for counseling 
and extra instructional help. ;
