Expulsion or suspension targets Black pupils while similar white cases go unpunished, and corporal punishment is applied to Black students in upper grades but not to white peers. The filing seeks an injunction against unequal discipline, parental consent for corporal punishment, and a court-ordered adoption of fair standards by the school board.
