[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it is indeed a racial issue I would hesitate to presume its a simple matter of the little black boy being singled out by the prejudiced white teacher as the sole antagonist/instigator in her classroom and disciplined more often and more harshly as a result. By and large, school districts with high percentages of black children are taught predominantly by black teachers and these schools also have a high percentage of black administrators - so where's the racist element to explain these disproportionate numbers in disciplinary action? Could it be that perhaps the actual reason for the greater likelihood of suspensions for black students is not so much a racial issue in schools but more so a cultural issue in schools? - i.e. black teachers/administrators are more likely to kick a kid out of class than put him in time out. Just wondering.[/quote] :idea: [/quote]
