Carroll ISD in Southlake is under investigation, and so are some other local school districts.
The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights has thousands of ongoing investigations into school districts across the county. The agency is not ignoring North Texas.Two new federal investigations have been opened into alleged civil rights violations at Carroll Independent School District. They were launched in January by the U.S.
Carroll ISD, based in Southlake, has been at the center of controversy over discrimination since at least 2018, as detailed in multiple reports fromand a multipart podcast series by the network. That year, a video of white high-school students from the district chanting a racial slur went viral. This led to parents, students and graduates coming forward with their experiences of racism and anti-LGBTQ harassment in the district.
A spokesperson for the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights said it could not provide details about the ongoing investigations, including those launched most recently, on Jan. 19 and Jan. 23. All the spokesperson could disclose is which federal laws the district allegedly violated.“The U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights can confirm that there are eight open investigations into Carroll ISD,” the spokesperson said in an email.
Besides the investigations of Carroll ISD, several others have been launched looking into civil rights violations at Texas school districts. Two of them stem from complaints against Irving and Prosper independent school districts. Both districts are being investigated over alleged racial harassment, according to the U.S. Department of Education’s website.
