U.S. Schools are Racists

From the first link:

Quote:

The Education Department's Office of Civil Rights looked at 15 years' worth of data and found what it called a pattern of inequality in how students are disciplined, whether they have good teachers or not and whether they have access to a full range of academic offerings.

I don't see how that conclusion can be made from that report. Yes, minorities are disciplined/suspended/expelled at a higher rate than whites. But from the report:

Quote:

While boys and girls each represent about half of the student population, boys represent nearly three out of four of those suspended multiple times out of school and expelled.

So are the schools sexists as well?
