PER CURIAM:
  
   *
  

  On appeal, Defendant-Appellant Simpson County School District (“the District”) asks this court to reverse the district court’s ruling that denied the District’s efforts to be declared unitary and the continuing court-supervised desegregation case against it dismissed. The district-court’s Memorandum Opinion and Order appealed from granted the District’s motion in part, declaring unitary status in the areas of student body compositions, transportation, extracurricular activities, and facilities. It denied unitary status, however, and thereby retained oversight, regarding faculty and staff assignments. The court thus retained jurisdiction under the consent decree and reserved the option to reevaluate the District’s position in one year.
 

  Based on our extensive review of the record on appeal and the parties’ briefs, we perceive no reversible error of fact or law, and therefore affirm the ruling of the district court.
 

  AFFIRMED.
