Report: Data shows disproportionate punishments for FCPS students of color





LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — New data collected by the NAACP of Lexington and partners concluded that Fayette County Public Schools disproportionately disciplines students of color and spends more money on law enforcement than student support services.


The NAACP of Lexington collaborated with the Grassroots Law Project and the Institute for Compassion in Justice to produce the data presented in a release issued Tuesday.

Reading this report about disproportionate punishments for FCPS students of color really made me think about how educational inequality can impact a student’s academic journey and confidence. As a PhD student today, I understand how important fair support systems are for learners. I also work part-time at Last Minute Assignments assisting students with their academic work, including cheap java assignment help. I’m passionate about helping others because during my own college days I struggled a lot with similar academic hurdles, so now I try to guide students whenever possible.
