Frederick County Faces New OCR Racial Balance Directive
The Frederick County Board of Education must extend compliance to September 1976 and adopt two resolutions to reorganize elementary schools in the City of Frederick to match district minority ratios. A companion plan assigns faculty to reflect district proportions, with both resolutions due within 10 days. The OCR aims to reduce minority enrollment gaps at six city schools, notably South Frederick Elementary, which now exceeds the 28 percent target.
