Шаблон:Infobox school Brook School was a grammar school located in Hillburn, New York, in the Ramapo Central School District. . The school was an all-black school, which parents fought to desegregate in the early 1930s and again in 1943.,.[1][2][3][4] Thurgood Marshall was hired by the NAACP to desegregate the school. Thurgood Marshall won a disparity case regarding integration of the schools of Hillburn, 11 years before his landmark case of Brown v. Board of Education, on behalf of the village's African-American parents. Leonard M. Alexander and Peter C. Alexander, "It Takes a Village: The Integration of the Hillburn School System.
