Recent outbreaks of racial violence in Boston will not affect the activities of the Roxbury-Harvard School project, Barbara J. Galvin, assistant director of the project, said yesterday.
"There have been no difficulties, we're not making any changes right now," she said.
The project, pairing Harvard and Roxbury High School, was created last summer in conjunction with Phase Two of U.S. District Judge Arthur Garrity's desegregation plan.
The program involved Harvard faculty and students in tutoring programs, career counseling for seniors and improvement programs in math and reading at Roxbury High.
Earlier this year, Joyce M. Grant, director of the project, described the program as an attempt to "address both the issue of desegregation and improvement of education at the same time."
