Supreme Court to Review Maryland Middle School Admissions Race Lawsuit
The US Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case challenging Montgomery County, Maryland's middle school admissions policy, which some parents allege discriminates against Asian American students by using socioeconomic factors to influence admissions. The lawsuit, filed in 2020 by the Association for Education Fairness, contests changes made to admissions that affect selective magnet schools. The court will decide if the case can proceed, potentially revisiting issues of race-conscious admissions following a 2023 ruling against affirmative action in college admissions.
