8th Circuit expected to rule on deseg case

Today's THV looks at the potential effects of the end of the 24 year-old desegregation lawsuit. The 8th Circuit Court of Appeals is expected to rule later this summer that Little Rock, North Little Rock and Pulaski County School Districts are racially compliant. Losing $34 million for LRSD (or $60 million for all three districts) is one way to look at it, as the title to their story suggests. Or, it could mean good news for Arkansas taxpayers and other school districts around the state.
