Four private schools opened in Chinatown drawing about 1000 elementary students withdrawn from public schools by parents opposed to court ordered busing for integration. James Wong of Chinese Parents for Quality Education said the move arose from a strong desire for school choice. The schools meet after afternoon public dismissals in donated classrooms used for Chinese language and culture, allowing students to walk home for lunch and attend bilingual sessions.
