OPINION OF THE COURT

ALDISERT, Circuit Judge.

The consolidated appeals by the Delaware State Board of Education and nine school districts from the district court’s ordering of a desegregation plan in the suburban New Castle County public schools require us to decide if the district court misused its discretion when it rejected a state-designed plan and adopted another plan designed to remedy constitutionally defective segregated schools in eleven public school districts. Evans v. Buchanan, 447 F.Supp. 982 (D.Del. 1978). We conclude that the court did not act improperly and, accordingly, affirm.
