De facto segregation of residences can result in segregated schools.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If neighborhoods are segregated by race or ethnicity, the students from those neighborhoods will likely attend segregated schools. This is because schools draw their student population from the surrounding neighborhoods. Even if a school is not officially designated as segregated, if the neighborhoods it serves are segregated, the school will also be segregated in practice. This phenomenon is known as "resegregation" and has been a concern in many parts of the United States.
