A community forum on school pushout of Black Girls in Virginia
Follow us on...
Please join Delegate Jennifer Carroll Foy and the National Women’s Law Center for a community forum on school pushout. Too many girls are pushed out of the classroom because of stereotypes, bias, and unnecessarily harsh discipline policies. In Virginia, Black girls are 5.2 times more likely to be suspended than white girls, and there is no evidence that they misbehave more often.
