Lawsuit against NY Education Department to move forward after parents say children were discriminated against

The lawsuit against the New York State Education Department, filed by parents who allege their children were discriminated against due to their race, has been allowed to move forward by a federal judge. The parents claim that the state's education policies, particularly those related to the handling of the educational impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, disproportionately harmed their children, who are white, by not providing adequate resources or addressing learning loss effectively.

The case, which seeks to address systemic issues in educational equity, will now proceed to discovery, where both sides will gather evidence to support their claims.
