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
Amarillo Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People v. Amarillo Independent School District, 443 F.2d 1175 (5th Cir. 1971)
1971 U.S. App. LEXIS 9703
Amarillo Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People v. Amarillo Independent School District
Opinion
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.
