While the plaintiffs tried to argue the mobiles were inferior and detrimental to the education of students of color, Gettleman did not find them convincing. He also believed the district when it said race was not a factor in drawing attendance boundaries. Because administrators said they specifically excluded race from their decisions over school assignment, plaintiffs could not prove they intentionally discriminated against black and Latino students in choosing a neighborhood schools model. Gettleman also ruled in favor of the district based on the way it ran its English Language Learners program... The fall hearing, scheduled for Oct. 11, is expected to be closed to the public as settlement talks continue. dailyherald/article/20130725/news/707259731/
