Ada Public Schools Provides New Integration Plan
Ada Public Schools forwarded to the U S Office of Education a revised integration policy ten years after desegregation. Superintendent Rex Morrison authored the plan, endorsed by the Ada Board, and aligned with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to enable federal funding. It cites free school choice for all students, transfers with no regard to race, and nonresidence restrictions, with apologies for overcrowding as the only exception to desegregation. Registration reopens Monday and runs through Friday for another school-choice option.
