"But she was rebuffed by school board members and conservative parents who accused her and others of trying to force a far-left political ideology into classrooms. Jones said she and her family felt validated by the Education Department's finding."
The parents were correct. The leftist department of education agreeing doesn't change anything, if anything it reinforces their defense.
An article referenced by this one shows the accusations of racism, homophobia and xenophobia, so basically if you're white and sing rap lyrics, don't bow to the rainbow cult and want a secure border you're the bad guy.

Well There is nothing ok about that if the school district turned a blind eye to it.

Well nobody should be harassed or picked on just because they are gay.
Oh I agree, the harassment I've seen described is very minor compared some stuff I saw growing up.4th and Inches said:agreed, nothing ok about the school dostrict not dealing with bullyingForest Bueller said:

You have to wonder how small city intra ethnic/sexual beefs between school age children can become national news and a problem the Federal government feels it needs to be involved in
The modern USA is a strange place.
A big update from @ahylton26 on a story we’ve been chronicling for years in Southlake, Texas.

Why should the kids be disciplined at all? They were off campus. Edit; you said by their parents. I missed that part. My bad.The_barBEARian said:Forest Bueller said:

What started all this was a single snapchat video that went viral of some teens saying the "N word" off school property. Should the kids in the video receive discipline from their parents? Yes. Should the entire school district be forced to participate in an overzealous campaign of collective guilt? No.
Because this has become so hyper-politicized, I find it convenient these people are coming out with these bullying complaints now.

Agree, also this race hustling nonsense always seems to flare up during an election year.
I wonder why it took the Department of Ed years to make a decision?

We dont want them making any decision quickly.. we need these things to be reviewed and talked about by a committee and then tabled until after summer break and then the notes lost when an intern drops burrito spillage on them..
