As the Latino/a immigrant population increases, racial conflict historically understood in terms of Black and White in the U.S. South has expanded to include new contestants in metro-Atlanta public schools. By examining market and sociological competition theoretical perspectives, this study investigates how language assistance resource implementation for English language learners is influenced by supply–demand, school, neighborhood, and political factors. The findings suggest that programmatic decisions about language assistance are driven predominantly by supply–demand factors. However, neighborhood and school racial competition measures also influence the availability of language assistance for English language learners, particularly in terms of onsite language assistance instruction
