approved by the governing board of the school distric
I feel that having this approval required leaves a lot of room for people to deny classes and again start the whole cycle of people deeming what can be in an ethnic studies course (more room for those who don't approve of ethnic studies to try not approve of classes due to bias)

one-semester course in ethnic studies.
I feel that more than just a 1 semester course should be required and or offering ethnic studies electives that are higly encouraged to take

Ethnic studies benefit pupils in observable ways, such as pupils becoming more academically engaged, increasing their performance on academic tests, improving their graduation rates, and developing a sense of self-efficacy and personal empowerment.

I don't find it fair that individuals who already held a previous bias on the topic put themselves in the position of investigating.

infringed on students’ First and 14th Amendment rights
This conclusion reminds me of the Richard Delgado reading where he goes into detail to explain the paradox's that surrounding shutting down the MAS programs. In one of them, he elaborates on recognition and acquisition of self knowledge which I think he tied into the first amendment rights.

do not need more rhetorical support
I think that a lot of ethnic studies proposals have received a lot of "rhetorical support" but when it comes to actually enacting it into reality, there is an unfortunate lack of action by those who can help make such programs possible

s raised their G.P.A. by 1.4 grade points, attendance by 21 percentage points, and credits earned by 23.
a very important thing to note. Ethnic Studies allows for students to see themselves and their community in what they are learning. They want to know more and in doing so, they can become advocated for change.
