integrated schools

Racially combined classrooms

Schools in which students of different races attend together, particularly in the American context of ending racial segregation.

The term emerged during the civil rights era as the counterpart to segregated schools: The Supreme Court ruled that integrated schools were constitutionally required.

Integration often involved busing students across districts to achieve racial balance.
