**(a) Findings** Congress makes the following findings: (1) Magnet schools are a significant part of the Nation’s effort to achieve voluntary desegregation in our Nation’s schools. (2) The use of magnet schools has increased dramatically since the inception of the magnet schools assistance program under this chapter, with approximately 2,500,000 students nationwide attending such schools, of whom more than 69 percent are non-white. (3) Magnet schools offer a wide range of distinctive programs that have served as models for school improvement efforts. (4) It is in the best interests of the United States— (A) to continue the Federal Government’s support of local educational agencies that are implementing court-ordered desegregation plans and local educational agencies that are voluntarily seeking to foster meaningful interaction among students of different racial and ethnic backgrounds, beginning at the earliest stage of such students’ education; (B) to ensure that all students have equitable access to a high quality education that will prepare all students to function well in a technologically oriented and a highly competitive economy comprised of people from many different racial and ethnic backgrounds; and (C) to continue to desegregate and diversify schools by supporting magnet schools, recognizing that segregation exists between minority and nonminority students as well as among students of different minority groups. (5) Desegregation efforts through magnet school programs are a significant part of our Nation’s effort to achieve voluntary desegregation in schools and help to ensure equal educational opportunities for all students. **(b) Purpose** The purpose of this part is to assist in the desegregation of schools served by local educational agencies
