Answer 2

C. determine if Georgia's citizens opposed or supported integration.

Explanation:

The results of the Sibley commission were divided as it found different arguments on how people felt about doing away with segregation.

It upheld that the public schools should be able to decide if they want to or do not want to integrate all students into their fold.

The commission was not entirely open on the idea to close down schools that did not agree and left it to the state to decide if such a thing should or should not be done.
