Question: 1 / 400

The Larry P. v. Riles case mandated the reevaluation of which group?

Black students in EMR classes

The Larry P. v. Riles case specifically focused on the evaluation practices used for students in special education and highlighted the disproportionate placement of Black students in classes for Educable Mentally Retarded (EMR) students. The case addressed concerns that the standardized tests used for placement were culturally biased, leading to an overrepresentation of Black students in these categories. As a result, the case mandated changes to ensure fair and equitable assessment practices for Black students, particularly within EMR programs. This historic ruling aimed at improving educational opportunities and ensuring that all students received appropriate evaluations based on their actual capabilities, rather than cultural biases in testing.
