Abstract:

Over the past 6 months, the merger of Durham City Schools and Durham County Schools has gone from unlikely to inevitable. Sometime over the next three months, indications are that Durham County Commissioners will vote to merge the two school districts. Economic, political, and social factors that contributed to the support of the merger are detailed.
