“A Dallas public school “crossed the line” in trying to appeal to parents of white students, including the Parent Teacher Association president’s idea to limit the number of Hispanics pictured in a brochure, attorneys argued Wednesday in a racial segregation lawsuit.

Latino parents at mostly Hispanic Preston Hollow Elementary School filed a federal lawsuit against principal Teresa Parker and the Dallas Independent School District in April. The suit alleges that Hispanic and black students were kept in English as a Second Language classes even when they tested out and that multiage courses with almost all white students were created.”
