ABSTRACT:
Long Island public schools became somewhat less segregated in the decade between 1991 and 2001. But, this is heavily the product of population growth among minority groups, especially Hispanics. White students are more exposed to minority students than in the earlier period, but black students are less exposed to white students and their population, and that of Hispanics, increased.
