Residential and School Segregation

Residential Segregation: a topic that is undermined by many people across the country. In the previous years, residential segregation has increased at a spiking rate around the nation, and, according to a study done by Economic Policy Institute, cities that have high residential segregation have also reported high cases of school segregation. Residential segregation causes minorities to live in the same area/neighborhood and their children attend the same school and there is no racial diversity in those schools and those schools receive very few facilities. In these few years, as residential segregation has come to light, school segregation has also been unveiled in certain parts of the nation to a higher extent.
