Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
De facto segregation refers to segregation that occurs as a result of societal factors or private choices rather than explicit laws or policies. In the context of schools, de facto segregation often occurs as a result of housing patterns and neighborhood demographics, rather than as a result of deliberate efforts to segregate schools. De jure segregation, on the other hand, refers to segregation that is explicitly mandated by law or policy. "Organic" and "libertarian" are not terms that are typically used to describe the phenomenon of segregation in schools.
