Fox News: Supreme Court must end divisive practice that is tearing schools apart
The US Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit has ruled that Fairfax County School Board's new admissions policy for the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science & Technology (TJ) does not violate the equal protection clause.

The Court's decision contradicts the overwhelming proof of race-based discrimination, and is seen as the focus on diversity in aid of racial balancing. The new policy resulted in the low admission of 26% of Asian American students in TJ's first year of implementation.
