The North Thurston Public School district in Washington State has evidently decided that Asians no longer qualify as ‘persons of color‘ because they inconveniently do not chronically under-perform academically the way Blacks and Hispanics do:

In their latest equity report, administrators at North Thurston Public Schools—which oversees some 16,000 students—lumped Asians in with whites and measured their academic achievements against “students of color,” a category that includes “Black, Latinx, Native American, Pacific Islander, and Multi-Racial Students” who have experienced “persistent opportunity gaps.”

Most indicators in the report show that the achievement gap between white/Asian students and “students of color” is fairly narrow and improving over time. It would probably be even narrower if Asian students were categorized as “students of color.”

Asians Too Smart To Be Considered ‘Students Of Color’

I went to grade school with a Japanese-American kid. His mother was full blooded Japanese. She must have hooked up with some guy that was in Korea for Korean War. No idea what ever became of his father. This was back in the 60s.

That kid was pretty smart. He went to Lane Technical High School.

He married some white chick that lived on south side of Chicago. I just happened to be making flower deliveries at that time and delivered a flower piece to the bride's home. I mentioned that I had gone to grade school with him. I really do not think they cared. :-/
