New For what it's worth,...
when we moved to Charlotte, my youngest was in elementary school and was bussed across town (~45 minute ride each way) to a predominantly black area school and kids from that area were bussed to the general area I live in. *All* schools, no matter where located in the county, have approximately the same proportion of minority students.

New define minority, you mean a minority based of local color?
If that is the case you are correct, locally there is a small minority of whites attending largely black schools and vice versa.
thanx,
