In the 1980s, a new, and even more controversial, court order required crosstown busing.


This, not integration, single handedly destroyed BR public schools to the point of no return.

Yep. I went to Central during the forced bussing period, which was less impacted than the BR schools, but I knew kids moving or using relative's addresses. It was a mess.

My HS girlfriend was zoned for Glen Oaks but she just "moved in" with her grandparents that lived in the Central district
