Missouri Attorney General recently launched an investigation into the Hazelwood School District following an after-school fight that resulted in a student being hospitalized with severe head injuries. The Attorney General attributed the incident to the school district's diversity, equity, and inclusion programming, suggesting that the presence of a school resource officer could have prevented the altercation.
The Hazelwood School District, which is predominantly Black, has been accused of racial bias by the Attorney General for its diversity initiatives. The district's lawyer questioned the AG's focus on this particular incident while overlooking similar cases in neighboring districts.
