Under a court order first grade pupils had been assigned to the schools which they had attended as pre-school pupils. The United States Office of Education held that these pup ils had not been given a first and second choice and order ed that new applications for as signment be given to all Negro pre-school children. For 1965-66 over 100 Negro pupils from former Negro schools chose other formerly Negro schools. These choices were denied and the children assigned to the school pre viously attended. The reasons for denial were overcrowding with children living closer to the school Involved, or the ab sence of school transpor tation facilities for these child ren to the school chosen. To the extent that these choices were denied because of overcrowding with children liv ing closer to the school chosen, the assignment will be rescind ed and these more distant child ren and their parents will be contacted by letter and offered a new choice. The Choice of Schools Form will be sent them and used for this purpose. Full publicity will be given as to this right. New choice will be granted to the extent space permits. They will, however, be advised of the formerly white and formerly Negro schools to which transportation will be provided them. The same procedures will be used for all of these children. A few others (S) chose schools In distant places, via; Washing ton, D. C. , and New York City, probably due to misunder standlng of requirements or an intention to indicate that they would be moving.
