The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in the case of Parents Involved in Community Schools v. Seattle School District No. 1 docket number 05-908. The Seattle School Board adopted a plan to assign students to schools on the basis of race in an effort to overcome the effects of segregated housing patterns.
