    A lawsuit was recently filed by Virginia parents against the Albemarle County School Board for following policies and engaging in practices that are strikingly similar to those contemplated (and in many cases already implemented) by the Westport public school system. The lawsuit is filed by several families with children in the school district who cover a wide span of racial and cultural backgrounds. These plaintiffs allege significant personal, psychological and financial harm to the students and their families, who were negatively affected by these illegal policies and practices.

Per the lawsuit, the Albemarle school district’s use of the construct of racial equity further implicates the district in multiple violations of its pupils’ legal and civil rights: 

    The Policy also proclaims the existence of “equity gaps” (described earlier in the Policy as “significant disparities between racial groups”) which are blamed on “inequitable access to opportunities that have significant intergenerational effects and perpetuate economic, social, and educational inequity...”
