Report: Tennessee Schools Rank High in Racial and Economic Segregation

A report by Brown’s Promise and the Segregation Tracking Project ranks Tennessee sixth in racial school segregation and 20th in economic segregation. The study shows increased segregation between white and Black/Hispanic students in Tennessee since 1991, with segregation metrics rising from .52 to .58 and .02 to .34, respectively. School choice programs like vouchers lack protections for equitable access to enrollment.
