[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know if someone has already posted something similar, but this is a helpful document from the [u]US Department of Education[/u] to help people understand why the program is not illegal or racist.

https://www.ed.gov/news/press-releases/us-education-secretary-announces-guidance-ensure-all-students-have-equal-access-

In particular:
Under Title VI, states, school districts and schools must not intentionally treat students differently based on race, color or national origin in providing educational resources. In addition, they must not implement policies or practices for providing educational resources that disproportionately affect students of a particular race, color or national origin, absent [b]a substantial justification.[/b] [b]The law does not require that all students receive the exact same resources to have an equal chance to learn and achieve.[/b] It does, however, require that all students have equal access to comparable resources in light of their educational needs.[/quote]

And I point to this sentence: Under Title VI, states, school districts and schools must not intentionally treat students differently based on race, color or national origin in providing educational resources.

I posted above that I don’t have a problem with this program but they need to make it clear that is open to everyone. that’s it. [/quote]

Where does it explicitly state they aren’t? Get over yourself.[/quote]
