Education Department rescinds decades-old school discrimination regulations

The U.S. Department of Education has rescinded regulations dating back more than 60 years that allowed federal civil rights enforcement based on disparate impact, ending the practice of investigating school policies that disproportionately affect racial or ethnic groups without evidence of intentional discrimination. The change, which aligns with a Trump administration executive order, states that Title VI of the Civil Rights Act prohibits only intentional discrimination and that the department will no longer pursue disparate impact claims against federally funded schools. The administration said the move will reduce compliance burdens and give schools greater flexibility in areas such as student discipline without fear of federal enforcement based on statistical disparities. However, more than 60 civil rights and education organizations condemned the decision, arguing it weakens protections for marginalized students, makes discrimination harder to challenge, and removes an important incentive for schools to consider the unintended consequences of their policies. Separately, the department also rescinded civil rights regulations governing career and technical education (CTE) programs, eliminating additional reporting and compliance requirements that officials described as duplicative.
