Treating our AA students as an isolated group with special needs is not serving them - or any other student who witnesses this on-going discrimination! We need to look at school systems & referrals (and culture and climate and behavior and support) on a bigger/broader level.

Seems like once a student gets one referral they're more likely to get others because now they carry this "troublemaker" label. Would similar behavior from a student whose never gotten a referral warrant a referral?

There's a correlation between students being of color and their receiving referrals. The relationship between these is likely more complex than what their experience is in our individual classrooms, but it'd seem we could do better

it is very clear we are failing our black and brown students but it is not surprising to me. I have seen the way we deal with our POC students and the data matches. The school tends to referral their POC students instead of finding better , more positive, and useful strategies to help our youth.
