Abstract:
Located in West Durham, E.K. Powe Elementary School has a strong teaching staff, supportive black parents, and a record of rising test scores. What is lacking is the support of the white community. As white parents are rediscovering public education, new questions about segregation are being raised. Can urban public schools attract white parents without providing elitist and effectively segregated programs?
