This report on urban education in Massachusetts deals specifically with issues of desegregation. In the first section, seven effective, desegregated school districts are profiled: Boston, Cambridge, Holyoke, Lowell, New Bedford, Springfield, and Worcester. Following this section is a paper on educational equity for linguistic minority students which asserts that these students are not now being adequately educated and are dropping out of school as a result of their frustration at failing to learn. Recommendations for better servicing them are included. Another essay covers, by geographical area, the education of Southeast Asian and Haitian refugees in the Boston/Cambridge area in 1985-86. This is followed by a section outlining the Massachusetts and Federal requirements with regard to minority students. The final section considers enrollment trends and patterns and gives extensive enrollment by ethnic/racial category in 15 Massachusetts cities. (CG)
