I see you responded to the request a poster made to put it into the Zone 1 rubric ----

I preferred it where it was. Nice thread, there.

Are there any adults in the room who can demand the quantitative data that proves a more "diverse" faculty results in better academic outcomes?

I rather doubt it.

Apparently. Black skin color is more important than anything else, apparently.

It's going to result in white teachers applying for other districts rather than this one so fairly quickly you will see a mostly black faculty. I believe many white teachers will see the writing on the wall and leave for other districts.

I'd say this will end up in the Supreme Court and knocked down, it's clearly unconstitutional.
