Disparities between the quality of education attained by students of different backgrounds have been quite evident throughout the past couple decades, and even in 2011 these inequalities are quite prevalent. The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), the second largest district in the country, is finally accepting the ramifications of the need to equalize the education provided to minority students. Although it will take quite some time for the changes to be put into action and for results to be attained, effort will be put into increasing the education quality of schools in neighboroods catering to minority populations.
