===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1968<br> United States ===== Definition ===== Urban school segregation refers to the practice of segregating schools within urban areas based on race, ethnicity, or socio-economic status. This segregation can occur through a variety of means, such as zoning laws that create racially or economically homogeneous school districts, or through the ways in which students are assigned to schools within a district. Urban school segregation is a significant issue because it perpetuates inequalities in education and reinforces existing social divisions. Segregated schools are often underfunded and lack resources, leading to disparities in academic achievement and outcomes for students of color and those from low-income backgrounds. Additionally, segregated schools can further isolate students from different backgrounds, limiting their opportunities for cross-cultural understanding and collaboration. Efforts to address urban school segregation include policies that promote diversity in school enrollment, invest in schools in underprivileged communities, and provide resources and support for disadvantaged students. By breaking down barriers to integration and ensuring that all students have access to high-quality education, urban school segregation can be alleviated and the promise of equal opportunity in education can be realized. ==See also== ==Related segregation forms== Urban school segregation is frequently discussed in the literature with the following segregation forms: [[racial segregation]], [[district racial segregation]], [[school segregation]] [[File:urban_school_segregation.png|780x780px]] This visualization is based on the study [[Segregation_Wiki:About| The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research]].
