Heading: High School Consolidation.

Text: 40 PAISD shall provide for the consolidation of high schools in two phases, to be implemented so as to result in fully integrated high school grades at the earliest feasible date. 41 (1) Two school plan. When the total high school enrollment, excluding students in magnet programs, becomes approximately 2,800, the system shall, at the beginning of the following school year, operate only two high schools. 42 (2) One school plan. When the total high school enrollment, excluding magnet programs, becomes approximately 2,200, only one high school shall be operated. 43 (3) Consolidation timing. If the first phase of consolidation has not occurred by October 31, 1984, the United States and PAISD will have sixty days to confer on another plan for integration. If no agreement results, the parties may submit proposed solutions to the Court, which shall hear evidence and render a decision consistent with part VI(B) of this stipulation. 44 (4) Notice for consolidation. Should the high school enrollment decline as described in part I(D)(1) and I(D)(2) above, PAISD shall provide notice to the Court and the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice regarding which school(s) it intends to close and the school(s) to which students will be reassigned, as well as the projected student enrollment, by race, that it expects will result at the remaining school(s) from such reassignment. Notice will be given pursuant to part IV of this stipulation. 45
