Share Your TUSD Desegregation Experiences

The Arizona Daily Star will be running a story on the positive, negative & neutral effects of the court-ordered TUSD Desegregation. We encourage anyone with thoughts on this matter to share them and contribute to the story. The following is the excerpt of the request on their online site:

Some of you were bused to schools across town because of your race.

Some of you attended distant magnet schools created to integrate the races.

Some of your kids couldn’t attend their preferred schools because of their race.

Some teachers were transferred because of their race.

The effects — positive, negative and neutral — of the desegregation of Tucson Unified School District reverberated across Tucson for a generation. After 31 years, the court-ordered desegregation ended in December (though the tax levy established to integrate the district lives on).

We’d like to hear your experiences of desegregation for an upcoming story. Please write them in the comments here, email them to tsteller@azstarnet.com or call 807-8427.

If you have a comment on this story please post on original story here.
