The Concord campus on Friday held separate assemblies for students of different ethnicities to talk about last year's test results and the upcoming slew of state exams this spring.

Jazz music and pictures of Martin Luther King greeted African-American students, whereas Filipino, Asian and Pacific Islander students saw flags of their foreign homelands on the walls. Latinos and white students each attended their own events, too, complete with statistics showing results for all ethnicities and grade level.

Jack Jennings, president of the National Center on Education Policy, a leading education research group, called the racially divided meetings potentially illegal and dangerous.

Какая то ужасающая избыточность - на фига это все делается? Какова цель? Кто это все придумывает? Где они время находят? Загадка.

Я так понимаю, что они над этим над всем по восемь часов в день думают, безостановочно.

(Недоверчиво) По восемь? Не, тут бери выше. По шестнадцать! Иначе не справится.
