Amarillo Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People v. Amarillo Independent School District
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided June 9, 1971 · Gewin, Goldberg, Dyer
443 F.2d 1175; 1971 U.S. App. LEXIS 9703 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Amarillo Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People v. Amarillo Independent School District

Opinion

BY THE COURT:

The finding of the District Court that the rebuilding of Amarillo High School at the proposed location in Southwest Amarillo, rather than at the original downtown location (where the school was destroyed by fire), does not serve to perpetuate or re-establish the dual system is clearly supported by the record. Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education, April 20, 1971, 402 U.S. 1, 91 S.Ct. 1267, 28 L.Ed.2d 554.

Affirmed.
