That's tearly twice the rate for the froward district as a whole. Miami-Dade's integration fforts were overseen by a ederal judge and managed by in advisory committee of Kcal leaders for 31 years fol - owing a 1969 civil rights law- uit. They worked to diversify ,chools by redrawing atten- lance boundaries, recruiting nore diverse teachers and treating magnet programs hat would entice students to joss neighborhood lines. Once the district was leclared unitary, however, it )ecame subject to laws that argely prohibit race -based The district's magnet schools, for example, reserve t portion of their seats for stu- dents from low-income neigh- borhoods — but tens of thou- sands of students still attend schools dominated by their own group. At nearly one- third of the 383 public schools, one ethnicity com- prises more than 85 percent of the student body. Integration today is far more complicated than it was 50 years ago, partially because of a political force that hardly existed in 1954: the black mid- dle class. Just like their white and Hispanic counterparts, black middle-class parents are more likely to be aware of desegre- gation tools such as magnet programs, because comfort- able incomes generally leave parents more time to involve themselves in school commu- nities. Poor families, on the other hand, often remain over- looked. "The black middle-class doesn't address the majority of kids," said Roland Foulkes, a member of the Broward dis- trict's diversity committee. "The majority have found themselves in re -segregated communities." On the wealthier western side of Broward, school inte- gration is more common. Pines Middle School in Pem- broke Pines, for example, is evenly split between black and Hispanic students. "When you look out west," said Broward board member Lois Wexler, "there are no longer racially identifiable schools." Herald staff writers Steve Harrison, Krystle Fernandez and Ginelle G. Torres contrib- uted to this report.

"It is unconscionable that 50 years later we're in the same shape we were 50 years ago and patting ourselves on the back." Earlier this year, the Broward School Board quietly eliminated the last of its "star - burst" attendance boundaries, where mostly black students in a neighborhood were dis- persed to different schools. FORCED BUSING That followed five decades of struggle to make peace with Brown. The Broward district had fought integration for most of two decades, until a federal judge ordered deseg- regation in 1970. Parents bat- tled forced busing from the 1970s until 1995, when a judge ended federal oversight in Broward and the district began to dismantle the pro- grani Today, families over- whelmingly choose to live near people who are similar to themselves in race, income and background. That makes it more difficult to draw attendance boundaries that foster diversity. Segregation has largely vanished from the vncabulary MIAMI-DADE COURTS of parents and educational leaders. "You don't hear anyone talking about segregated schools anymore," said Ben Williams, the only black Broward School Board mem- ber. "But you do hear parents saying they want their chil- dren to attend neighborhood schools." David Cadillo, a junior at the predominantly black Edi- son Senior High School in Miami -Dade, says his campus is not haunted by segregation. "We're all treated equally," said Cadillo, whose school has received two consecutive F grades. "We definitely have better opportunities than my grand- parents had." The focus now is on money, computers and books. A five-year lawsuit, settled in 2000, claimed minority stu- dents in Broward attended schools with inferior resources. The suit ended with a written commitment by the School Board to give all students equal access. Christopher Fertig, a Fort Lauderdale attorney involved in that suit, says inequalities remain "The bottom line is, they are not allocating the resources to these schools to xhe schools to Fertig said. "You walk into these schools, and immedi- ately you'll know this is an older, decrepit, inner-city school." School district leaders counter that they've taken great strides toward meeting the demands of the 2000 set- tlement by providing ade- quate books, technology, honors courses, libraries and extracurricular activities. "We're providing equal access for all students now," Williams said. Desegregation advocates have long argued that re -seg- regation would lead back to the same two-tiered school system that preceded Brown, with mostly black schools hobbled by poverty and poor performance. BROWARD SCHOOLS Here is how the 33 segre- gated Broward schools com- pare with the district as a whole: • Forty-five percent of those schools received grades of D or F from the state in 2003. By comparison, 11 per- cent of all Broward schools received low grades. • Seventy-two percent of students in segregated sols participate in the sub- MurdF- suspect asks for release ■ A teen who has been in jail since January for the shooting death of his accomplice by police asked a court for release or bond. BY CHARLES RABIN crabin@herald.com Rolando Llanes, the teen- ager charged with the second- degree murder of an accom- plice who was shot and killed by a Miami -Dade police offi- cer during a botched home robbery, has asked the court to set him free or allow him to post bond. "" Llanes, 18, has been in jail .ince Jan. 16, when Miami - Dade police Officer Jorge Espinosa shot and killed Leo- nardo Barquin, 17, while the two teens were allegedly rob- bing a home in West Miami - Dade County. Espinosa said Barquin twice pointed a gun at him before he shot the teen. No weapon has been found. Espinosa, who was on administrative leave for two months, returned to work at his Hammocks substation in March. The Miami -Dade state attorney's office and police continue to review the shoot- ing of Barquin. "It's still an open, pending case," police spokesman Rob- ert Williams said. Llanes has been charged with burglary as well as second-degree murder in the death of Barquin, though he chid not fire the weapon. Flor- laa law holds that if anyone is firmed during the commis- sion of a crime, an accomplice cin be charged with the crime. Llanes' attorney, Israel kncinosa, filed a three-page motion asking the court to release or set bond for his cli- ent, because the lead investi- gator in the case is more than three months' late in releasing discovery information. A hearing before Circuit Court Judge Diane Ward is scheduled for today. "The lead [detective] is supposed to'get- discovery within 15 days," Encinosa said. "It has taken this guy five months. I can't take deposi- tions or anything. I just want to get moving." State attorney's office spokesman Ed Griffith said Encinosa's concerns will be addressed in court today. The home break-in ended in the shooting death of Bar- quin after he and Llanes were confronted by Espinosa. . Five minutes after the two entered a home in the 14700 block of Southwest 58th Street through an open back window, they heard Espinosa, Llanes said in his statement. Llanes said he took off out the same window he entered, with the larger Barquin trying to do the same, but getting stuck. At that point, Espinosa said in his statement to police that Barquin pointed a gun at him and said, "I'll kill you cop." Espinosa, who was "scared" and "in fear of my life," said he fired his weapon twice. He said Barquin never returned fire.
