- hattmall 2y agoIn my, somewhat limited experience it's that predominantly black schools have far more rule breaking AND slack, but it eventually leans to such egregious offenses that severe punishment results. Everyday common occurrences at black schools would be practically unheard of and result in immediate suspensions at white schools but wouldn't even be acknowledged.
