[quote=Anonymous]Here's the big flaw with your plan: The premise of your argument would be that the county is disadvantaging minority students against their will in order to preserve/increase segregation. In so many of the options to give more balanced diversity between the schools, though, it was the minority groups who would have been moved to achieve that diversity who protested the move and wanted to stay in the closer school (for instance, the families in Hall's Hill and the Williamsburg island who didn't want to be bused to Williamsburg rather than going to the closer school with their ES classmates just to make Williamsburg more diverse). So not only would you probably not get those families on board with your lawsuit (since prevailing would mean them having to do something they have very explicitly stated they do not want to do), but it would completely undermine your case that APS offered a more balanced option and the people who supposedly would benefit most from it rejected it in favor of a less balanced option.[/quote]
