[edit] History

In 1956, Mansfield ISD segregated African-Americans to a separate elementary school and bussed African-American high school students to a school in Fort Worth [1].

The Mansfield School desegregation incident occurred in 1956, delaying a federal court-ordered desegregation. Desegregation quietly occurred in 1965 [2].

Mansfield ISD was the last school district in the United States to desegregate.
