Document Summary
Asian > white > black > hispanic. Black and hispanic students are seen to be more disciplines than white students(school related arrests etc) 70% of students involved in school related arrests or referred to law enforcement were black or hispanic (2010) Portland: black students nearly 5x more likely than white students to be expelled or suspended. Oakland: nearly 20% of black male students suspended at least once in 2011 - 6x time white male rate. Chicago: black students comprised 45% of student body in 2009-2010, but 76% of suspensions. Among students classified as overtly aggressive, blacks were more likely to be disciplined than any other group of students (they were already classified as overtly aggressive) Research suggests that black male students do not act out any more than white male students. Research also shows that when paired with another aa teacher, they are less likely to lash out or be disciplined.
