Wisconsin School Faces Legal Threat Over Alleged Race-Based Resource Policy

A parent claims her son was denied learning support due to a school policy prioritizing resources based on race, sparking constitutional and civil rights concerns.

• A Wisconsin elementary school is accused of prioritizing literacy resources for Black, Hispanic, and Native American students, allegedly disadvantaging white students.
• The parent of a dyslexic student claims her son was waitlisted for nearly a year and given less effective group-based support instead of one-on-one assistance.
• The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty argues the policy violates the U.S. Constitution and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, demanding its immediate rescission.
• The school district denies having an official policy but acknowledges language in its school success plan that references racial priority groups for resource allocation.
• Legal action is being considered if the district does not adopt a 'colorblind' approach to resource distribution and address the student's unmet educational needs.
