I went to Catholic High, the school in question, and there is a rich history of shitty administrators there. This same president was under fire a couple years ago for the blatant racism happening to non-white students over the decades. The whole admin tried sweeping it under the rug. They acted like they were taking it seriously by assembling a task force of alumnae, and then she wouldn't implement any of the suggestions that were presented to the administration. Nothing was done to address the concerns from previous and current students. It doesn't surprise me in the least that this expelled student who is a "perfect fit for public school" is a minority. This isn't even a Catholicism problem, but more of a Catholic High problem.

Thanks for the insight. It’s important context that there’s a history there.

Yeah like.

They had a history of it aaaaages ago. This doesn't surprise me (and is one HUGE reason I chose a different school despite being a legacy).
