Calvert County school board repeals anti-racism policy amid discipline disparity

The Calvert County, Maryland school board voted 4–1 to repeal its anti-racism policy, which had been adopted in 2020 following nationwide George Floyd protests. District data showed Black students were suspended at 2.1 times the rate of white students. The repeal came weeks after the district elected a MAGA-affiliated board majority and drew immediate criticism from civil rights organizations and the state education department.
