Yes, desegregation of Foster began in the late 60s under Coffin, but white kids were bused in to Foster. Foster closed in 1979 when Hill was superintendent. The closure was due to decline in student numbers. I think Kingsley closed at around the same time. The District sold Foster but held on to Kingsley which they re-opened later.

Thank you guys for this background!!
I could be wrong about the timing of Kingsley's closing. But it was definitely closed during the 1980s.
