Parents at a California middle school are a bit unnerved and anxious after the school district said the school was too white and would be subject to budgets cuts. It’s part of a race-based funding formula this progressive state has instituted regarding education since the 1970s, according to a local ABC News outlet:
Outrage has grown at Walter Reed Middle School in North Hollywood, as the school faces layoffs and increased class sizes due to a law limiting funds for schools with a higher white student body.The Los Angeles Unified School District provides more funding for schools where the white population is below 30 percent.
In a letter to parents, the district noted the highly regarded middle school had been above the percentage for the past couple years.
The racial formula was a condition imposed by court decisions dealing with desegregation in the 1970s.
Your school funding gets cut because there are too many white kids. What a crock.
