An upscale New York City private school’s plans to continue segregating students by race has parents up in arms.
It was just last month that parents whose children attend the Little Red School House in Manhattan’s West Village, which charges upwards of $45,000 in yearly tuition, would put minority middle school students in the same homerooms this coming fall, The New York Post reported. Director Philip Kassen had reportedly already implemented the race-based policy for the 2017-18 school year for 7th and 8th-grade students and hoped to expand it to 6th-grade students in September.
