Definition
Elementary school segregation refers to the practice of separating students based on their race, ethnicity, or other characteristics in educational settings. This practice was common in the United States prior to the Civil Rights Movement, when African American students were often forced to attend separate schools from their white counterparts. This segregation was ultimately ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in the landmark case Brown v. Board of Education in 1954. Today, segregation in elementary schools can still occur in some areas due to factors such as housing patterns and school district boundaries, leading to unequal access to resources and opportunities for students of different backgrounds. Efforts to address and combat school segregation continue to be important in promoting equity and inclusivity in education.
