Brown v. Board of Education, 347 US 483 (1954)
The US Supreme Court first declared segregation in public education unconstitutional in 1954, in the consolidated cases heard under the caption Brown v. Board of Education, 347 US 483 (1954). This overturned the decision in Plessy v. Ferguson,(1896), that allowed "separate but equal" accommodations for African-Americans in most areas of life, including education. In Brown, the Supreme Court determined that "separated but equal" wasn't equal, and unfairly branded African-American students as inferior.
Earlier cases not necessarily specific to public education, but to desegregation in general, laid the foundation for the decision in Brown. For more specific information, see Related Question, below.

The desegregation of Caroline County, Maryland school system was completed in 1967. It was a result of the Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, which declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional.
Integration in the public schools was primarily attained through legal challenges to segregation laws and policies in the federal court system, culminating with the Supreme Court cases Brown v. Board of Education, (1954) and Brown v. Board of Education II, (1955). Although the Court declared "separate but equal" unconstitutional, many southern school districts resisted desegregation until Congress passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, giving the federal government a means of enforcing the Supreme Court's decisions.
The Supreme Court didn't set a fixed timeline for desegregation in Brown v. Board of Education II, (1955), but ordered it to take place "with all deliberate speed."
The Supreme Court has no authority to enforce its decisions; however, the US District Courts have the ability to ensure compliance with federal laws within their territories by issuing court orders and applying legal penalties to those in contempt of court.
