Editorial
Bill would accelerate schools resegregation
Accusations of racism roiled an Indiana House debate last month and rightly drew attention to the uncivil atmosphere of this year s session. But the controversy shouldn t serve as cover for the bad piece of legislation that precipitated the discord. The bill could hasten the resegregation of schools already occurring under voucher and charter programs and sharpen the economic divide among the state s three school systems.
House Bill 1367 would establish a pilot program allowing a single township in St. Joseph County to withdraw from the South Bend Community School Corp. for annexation by the rural, much-smaller John Glenn School Corp. While it currently affects only those two districts, opponents rightly noted that once approved, the legislation could serve as a mechanism for localities statewide to pull out of one district and join another. Imagine Cedar Creek Township, home to the Leo-area schools, leaving East Allen County
In late February, Indiana House Bill 1367 advanced to the Senate despite bipartisan opposition, paving the way for students living in St. Joseph Countyâs Greene Township to leave the South Bend Community School Corp., which is racially diverse, and join the smaller, rural John Glenn School Corporation, a primarily white district.
As a former South Bend school board member and current chair of the St. Joseph County Democratic Party, I can speak to the damage this bill will cause if passed, and to the dangerous precedent it will set for urban school districts across Indiana.
I am also an attorney and parent of a student who attends South Bend schools â roles that provide a broad perspective for the argument against this bill becoming law.
