SAN ANTONIO — In a state that has passed anti-diversity laws and tried to squelch instruction on systemic racism, a new law could open doors for Latino and Black children long shut out of advanced math courses. Just a handful of states have taken the step Texas did this year. Under a law signed by Gov.
But in North Carolina, one of the first to have an “opt-out” law for advanced coursework, and in some of the fewer than six other states with such laws, “we’ve seen enrollment increases particularly for Black and Latino students,” said Eric Duncan, director of P-12 policy at The Education Trust, which focuses on eliminating racial barriers in education. The group has been tracking gaps in enrollment in advanced courses for several years.
