I was there, too. Before bussing, nothing every happened at our school After bussing, they locked us in our classrooms and pulled down those big metal gates in the hallways and you didn't want to get caught in the stairwells. Yes, totally against fire rules but it was to keep down the violence. Big surprise, my family moved the following year.
In the early 1970s’ blacks were bussed to my elementary school. One black boy would continually molest me and other second graders by rubbing his crotch against our backsides. He would push us down on the playground and lay on top of us- no doubt in simulation of what he saw at home. Another boy would expose himself to everyone and anyone. Not much could be done about it. Oh, and keep your lunch close by. They would steal your lunch and eat it in the coat closet and you would be without.
Also, the entire ‘remedial class’ was black. I was in gifted and talented classes - we were given books to read and left alone while the teacher’s attention was given to the ‘remedial’ students for entire classes.
