维吉尼亚联邦东区法院一名法官25日裁定，维吉尼亚州公校系统在改革全美排名第一的“托马斯‧杰斐逊科学技术高中”的招生政策中，歧视亚裔美国人。 相关阅读：全国试点！排名第一公立高中，采取新规招生，亚裔孩子降2成 联邦法官克劳德‧希尔顿（Claude Hilton）在裁决说，不允许“种族平衡”是托马斯‧杰斐逊科学技术高中（Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology，简称TJ高中）招生改革计划的核心；TJ高中改革后的招生制度，正如学校所知，构成了“种族平衡”的非法行为。 公校委员会改变了招生流程——取消了众所周知有难度的考试和100美元的申请费，而代之以匆忙、草率和不透明的方式，根据社会经济背景等经验因素来评估学生。 TJ高中是全美最好的公立学校，曾在全美公立高中排名第一，这所学校的招生竞争非常激烈。 之前它采取标准化入学考试来招生，但2020年，学校所在的“Fairfax县公校委员会”（Fairfax County School Board）对该校的招生程序进行了重大改革，2021年首次采用“综合评估”的新规招生，取消了标准化入学考试，把录取名额分配给该县所有公立学校中成绩在前1.5%的学生。 这一改革，导致了2021年秋季入学的招生中，亚裔学生占比骤降近20%——亚裔的比例从73%下降到54%，黑人学生的比例从去年的1%上升到7%，拉美裔代表从3%上升到11%。 TJ高中的招生改革引发了亚裔家庭的普遍不满，被批只为提升族裔多样化而降低了录取门槛。 去年3月份，几名亚裔家长对公校委员会和学区总监Scott Brabrand提起了诉讼，指控对方未保持“族裔中立”，但歧视亚裔。 该案的原告——由TJ高中的家长、学生和校友组成的TJ联盟（the Coalition for TJ）在昨天下午为胜诉而庆祝。Asra Nomani是该联盟的联合创始人，她的孩子是2021年毕业生。她在一份声明中表示，“Hinton（法官）的裁决令人兴奋，今天的胜利是所有学生、家庭和美国的胜利”，“这是法律面前人人平等的胜利，是优质教育和美国梦的胜利。” 纽约同源会（CACAGNY）也发出声明对原告获胜表示祝贺，“亚裔学生平均花在家庭作业上的时间是白人学生的两倍，黑人学生的四倍。因此，亚洲学生的勤奋努力在严格的、竞争激烈的学校（如TJ高中、纽约史岱文森高中和波士顿拉丁学校）的录取中取得了优异的成绩，这也就不足为奇了。这样才公平。”同源会说，某些人打着多样性、包容性的旗号来废除优质教育，什么都拿“种族主义”来说事，实质起到分裂、破坏的作用。 （在各类全国比赛中，该校学术类主力均为亚裔） 一个月前，联邦最高法院同意审理哈佛大学招生中涉嫌歧视亚裔学生一案。 目前起诉纽约市教育局关于改变史岱文森高中（Stuyvesant HS）等特殊高中录取规则违宪的诉讼，以及近日针对波士顿拉丁学校的诉讼，均仍在进行中。纽约同源会说，“必须继续抗争，直到精英制度恢复，法律规定的平等权利得到重申，正义占上风。” 被告的律师约翰‧福斯特（John Foster）表示，将考虑对裁决提起上诉。
看了几个评论，有一个看哭了 Before the change of admissions rules, black students accounted for 1% of TJ student body and Asian 73%. Was this because the number of rich Asians families were 73 times larger than that of rich black families? Obviously not, even though FCPS and their supporters wanted to frame it this way. We all know the true reason is that Asian students work much harder, even FCPS officials and their supporters had to admit it in their hearts although they would never dare to admit. Because this does not fit in their narrative and political agenda. Wealth disparity could matter in some other aspects of our society but is never the real reason in TJ's case. Many Asian parents who earn minimum wage working as waitresses or store clerks try to save up hundreds of dollars to send their kids to tutoring centers; And after realizing what kind of sacrifices their parents have been making, their kids work harder and score better. This is the real reason. These Asian families are no richer than poor black or Latino families. What truly matters is parents' vision, willingness to sacrifice, and self-motivation. Everyone should do the same if they want to get in TJ. These attributes should be promoted instead of being penalized. I support a public voucher program that enables every poor & self-motivated student to receive tutoring if they desire to, starting at middle school or even elementary school, so that everyone would have an equal opportunity to become academically prepared. And the admissions at TJ should be purely based on the test scores. This would help the truly motivated students constrained by their families' socio-econ status, including those poor Asian families. I also welcome other policies that promote social justice without hurting principles and standards. Abolishing the entrance test and loosening academic standards is a lazy shortcut and would ruin these bright young kinds and our country in the future. Same will identity politics.
支持家长， "这一改革，导致了2021年秋季入学的招生中，亚裔学生占比骤降近20%——亚裔的比例从73%下降到54%，African American学生的比例从去年的1%上升到7%，拉美裔代表从3%上升到11%。 " 亚裔的比例下降19%, 黑人上升6%， 重点是拉美裔上升8%，Caucasian 上升5%。 AA helps African American is just an excuse for some races to get more. 杰斐逊科学技术高中所在的district board 里 没有与亚裔沟通的渠道。Asian parents in this district need to be more actively involved. 防微杜渐， 而不是到事变大了。
