Summary

A race-based student disciplinary decision by an educator or school district violates the Texas Equal Rights Amendment of the Texas Constitution unless it is narrowly tailored to serve a compelling governmental interest. A court would likely conclude that avoiding a disparate impact cannot serve as a compelling governmental interest that justifies making a race-based student disciplinary decision.
