agree  Marina Herrera: esto es correcto. Tal vez la inclusión de "positive" signifique voluntario ya que hay una historia muy negative del transporte en autobús "obligado" que dejó a muchas comunidades divididas

integración forzada / servicio de transporte a otros distritos para evitar la segregación


Explanation:
Coincido con la entrada de mis colegas, pero creo que hay que reforzar la idea de la segregación, no se trata del transporte escolar a secas. Dependerá del contexto, porque en algunos momentos se habló de "integración forzada", hoy en día lo he visto en varios textos hablando de transporte escolar para evitar que a los niños se les asignen determinadas escuelas por motivos raciales.

disagree  Refugio: forced integration would be considered "negative bussing"

  -> De acuerdo, Ruth, no debí incluir integración forzada en mi título, simplemente quería reforzar la idea del tema segregacionista, que no se está aquí hablando del transporte escolar común y corriente.
