Integration Update.
Berry, Ray
In this updated report on the Riverside Unified School District, the district continues with its integration efforts including major program development. Over the three years of integration, performance of all children from the three major race groups has improved. In the primary grades, there has been a general trend toward higher reading achievement. A need for establishing close home ties at early ages, plus a recognition of the necessity for strong language development programs has led to a new kindergarten effort. The district continues to conduct boundary analysis with an emphasis upon balancing ethnic enrollment among the schools. One of the key reasons suggested for the success of the Riverside effort is that voluntary local initiatives rather than a court order led to the original decision to integrate the schools.
