- Abstract:
  This report, which focuses on a completed school project in Allentown, Pennsylvania, is one of two case studies focused on new public schools. In partnership with Enterprise Community Partners and their partners in these communities, we explored how two school openings affected access to opportunities for children. The case studies aim to understand the decisionmaking behind new school openings--why a new school is planned, where it is sited, how its facilities are designed, and where its boundaries are drawn--and the implications for racial and socioeconomic equity.
