This is an Answering Affidavit of Herbert Clish, Superintendent of Schools for the City School District of the City of New Rochelle.
This comes from a case brought against the Board of Education of the City of New Rochelle and the Superintendent of Schools by the parents of 11 African American elementary students of the school. The court found that the school district had infringed upon the children’s equal protection rights by deliberately creating and maintaining the Lincoln School as a racially segregated one.
