1Opinion of the Court
STEPHENSON, Circuit Judge.
The Board of Education of the North Little Rock School District sought permission from the district court to revise its desegregation plan. The Board wished to close one of its schools in order to ease administrative problems caused by declining enrollment and decreased funding. This motion was opposed on the grounds that it would place a disproportionate transportation burden on black students and because it would mean the closing of the only junior high in a black neighborhood. The district court, 502 F.Supp. 108,1 approved the proposed closing. We affirm.
