Kahlenberg Published2007, 9/3/2009 PublisherThe Century Foundation AbstractThe recent U.S. Supreme Court decision to curtail significantly the ability of school districts to integrate by race has shifted attention to a new and growing alternative form of integration based on the socioeconomic status of students.

Kahlenberg examines twelve school systems and finds that when socioeconomic school integration plans are well implemented, they can boost academic achievement and also provide students with a racially integrated schooling environment.
