From the Paper:

"Students entering Delaware High School already seem to have learned racist attitudes. Students are from many different ethnic groups, and observations show that they tend to group together with members of their own ethnic groups. In addition, there are occasional bullying incidents, name-calling, and fights that appear to be motivated by racism. Some of the children are recent immigrants, and therefore speak English as a second language."
