busing

Busing is a process where buses are used to transport students from their homes to schools. It was often implemented to promote racial integration by ensuring students from different racial or socioeconomic backgrounds attended school together, especially after segregation laws were challenged. The goal was to create more diverse and equitable educational environments, addressing disparities in school populations. Busing can involve transporting students across neighborhoods or districts to achieve these diversity objectives. While it has been a valuable tool for promoting integration, it has also been subject to debate and controversy regarding its effects on communities and student experiences.
