Question
What was the result of the North Carolina legislature’s Pearsall Plan to integrate public schools?
Responses

School districts that opposed accepting state money were allowed to integrate whenever they wished.

School districts made major efforts to integrate, but met with so much public resistance that they gave up.


Schools across North Carolina were put on a five-year plan to phase in integration, starting with the younger grades.

School districts found many loopholes and ways to avoid following the Supreme Court’s order to integrate schools

Answer 1

Explanation: The freedom-of-choice system allowed students to attend the school they wanted, and the voucher system allowed parents to use state money to support their child's education in a private school. In effect, the Pearsall Plan did little to integrate North Carolina's public schools.
