A cooperative effort between the National Institute of Education and the Clark County (Nevada) School District demonstrated the practical use of available computer-assisted techniques for helping local communities allocate students to schools and for solving other problems that occur during districting efforts. By using available computer technology, local needs were met in school site evaluation, school zone boundary planning, and bus route planning while meeting the standards required by the court-ordered desegregation effort. The use of these techniques can result in minimizing fuel costs of busing and in cutting the administrative effort required by the school planning process by approximately one third. Appendixes include the criteria for local involvement, the technical approach used, estimated man-months of effort expended, the project schedule, past approaches, a bibliography, and a glossary.
