"In 1968, the commission found that 226 of Philadelphia's 279 schools were racially segregated and that half of black students went to all-black or nearly all-black schools. Today, the numbers remain much the same, both sides agree, despite the creation of 19 magnet schools and 12 magnet programs that offer specialized instruction as a way to draw a more racially balanced student population."
