Magnet schools should also ONLY be magnet. No regular neighborhood kids mixed in with magnet kids.
They tried that with Scotlandville Magnet High School in the mid 90s(thankfully after I graduated) and it failed miserably.

Dude a big fat blackeye / lie of deseg order was happening at Buchanan Elementary in the mid 80s. They took all the smart white kids around BR and bussed us to the middle of the hood for advanced classes. We got a great education and head start on the rigors of McKinley.
But we 3-4 blacks in our classes in 4th and 5th grade. All while next door to 100% black classrooms of 'regular' students.
Eta: bussride was about 1.5 hours long each way. We Picked up every damned white kid along highland from CCL(was just being built) to University Gardens.
