How is this fixing schools?

It is very disturbing that the Dept of Education is going make an issue out of race with regard to discipline. To be fair, the Obama administration is supporting the supt in Rhode Island who has fired all the teachers who refused to improve their performance by working with students who have abysmal performance records. But this is an ominous development. Read over at PowerLine:

As a result, school discipline will be further eroded, making it increasinigly difficult for students of all races to learn.

It's bad enough that the Obama-Duncan Education Department is intent on trapping students in bad public schools. Now, it plans, though aggressive "civil rights" enforcement, to undermine whatever measure of discipline these schools have been able to maintain.
