"Cecelski’s (1994) casestudy in Hyde County, North Carolina, uncovered that White pupils received funds to attend private schools in an effort to avoid participating in desegregating public schools under the freedom of choice plan entitled the “Pearsall Plan.” Many African American schools closed in Hyde County to desegregate public schools from 1965 to 1968. As a result, many African American pupils were forced to attend other predominantly White schools."
