Why did Little Rock high schools close for an entire year following the first year that the Little Rock Nine attended Central High?

The majority of the community was opposed to school integration.

President Eisenhower pronounced the schools unsafe for all students.

Governor Faubus was determined to build new schools for white students.

The students were too intimidated by the National Guard, military, and police.
