Statement from Tracy McDaniel
This month, the Center for Civil Rights Remedies will release a report entitled "Charter Schools, Civil Rights and School Discipline: A Comprehensive Review." It will draw on data from a report from the Office of Civil Rights on school suspension data from 2011-12. According to the CCR report, KIPP Reach College Preparatory, the middle school I founded in 2002 and still lead, had a suspension rate for black students in 2011-12 of 71 percent. This number is inaccurate, not because of a mistake by the Office of Civil Rights, but because of a reporting error we made at KIPP Reach.
