Mexican-American Education Council
The Mexican-American Educational Council (MAEC) was a post Chicano-movement non-profit organization in the Houston, Texas area. Its principal goal was to achieve equitable access to public education for Mexican Americans in Texas.
==History==

In late 1970, MAEC organized boycotts and walkouts of schools within the Houston Independent School District (HISD) in protest against the district's racist integration orders. In protest, MAEC established "huelga" schools where Mexican American children could attend school while the concerns were resolved. More than 3,500 students participated in the protests.〔San Miguel Jr., Guadalupe ''Brown, Not White: School Integration and the Chicano Movement in Houston'' (College Station, TX: Texas A&M Press, 2007) pp. 97-99〕 To advance their cause, they petitioned and received $65,000 in funding from the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in 1970.〔San Miguel Jr., pp. 156-157〕 On August 31, 1970 MAEC began aggressive boycotts, protests, and picketing. These actions lasted approximately three weeks, during which up to 75% of the student bodies of some high schools participated in the boycotts. During the protests MAEC demanded twenty issues to be resolved and HISD began rezoning school areas within its jurisdiction in response. However, this rezoning encouraged "white flight" since minorities were now entering "white schools" in large numbers.〔Angela Valenzuela ''Subtractive Schooling: U.S.-Mexican Youth and the Politics of Caring (New York: State University of New York Press, 1999) pp. 39-49〕 At first the district used forced busing, but later switched to a voluntary magnet school program in order to discourage "white flight".〔Berryhill, Michael. "What's Wrong With Wheatley?." ''Houston Press''. April 17, 1997. (p. 3 ). Retrieved on March 31, 2009.〕 The district eventually integrated races in a semi-peaceful manner.
