最高法院索尼娅·索托马约尔驳回了一名布鲁克林母亲提出的紧急申请，该申请要求让她的亚裔儿子入读纽约市一所精英高中。原告称，该市一项旨在招收贫困街区学生的招生计划歧视亚裔学生。
这起诉讼由陈怡芳（Yi Fang Chen）提起，她的儿子未能被史岱文森高中录取。诉讼指控纽约市修订后的招生要求故意歧视亚裔学生，同时增加黑人和西班牙裔学生的入学人数。陈怡芳于4月提起诉讼，指责纽约市违反了宪法第十四修正案的平等保护条款以及《民权法案》第六篇。
“迟来的正义总是令人沮丧，但我们仍有信心，法院最终将维护核心的平等保护原则，确保没有任何学生——包括我们当事人的儿子——因为种族而被视为不配获得教育机会，”原告方太平洋法律基金会的律师迪恩·麦吉告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。

周一，索托马约尔未就驳回这项紧急申请作出解释，该申请源于美国第二巡回上诉法院正在审理的一起诉讼。
陈怡芳的儿子在法庭文件中以缩写M.P.指代，他在专门高中招生考试（SHSAT）中获得558分，这是入学的必要条件。他仅差3分就能在本学年获得录取资格，但诉讼辩称，如果纽约市没有提高录取分数线，M.P.本可以被录取。此次分数线上调是因为该市预留了20%的招生名额给被认定为“经济困难”的学生。这项调整是时任市长比尔·德布拉西奥2018年扩大“发现计划”的一部分。

该计划仅限就读于至少60%学生被认定为经济困难的中学的学生，这意味着一些经济困难的学生如果所在中学未达到这一门槛，将被排除在计划之外。
今年通过“发现计划”录取的学生中，没有一人得分高于495分——比仅基于SHSAT成绩录取、不考虑经济状况的学生的最低分数线至少低66分。

“陈怡芳的儿子未能获得史岱文森高中的名额，因为该市将一项本应帮助经济困难学生的计划变成了种族工程的工具——实际上将全市各地的贫困儿童排除在外，”太平洋法律基金会的律师迪恩·麦吉在一份声明中表示。“平等保护意味着将孩子作为个体对待，而非人口统计数据。”

Sotomayor denies mom’s bid to get son into elite NYC school amid racial discrimination fight

The mother’s lawsuit alleges New York City’s revised admissions policy intentionally discriminates against Asian students

Justice Sonia Sotomayor denied a Brooklyn mother’s emergency bid to enroll her Asian American son at an elite New York City high school, alleging that a city program geared toward admitting students from economically challenged neighborhood into the school discriminates against Asian students.
The lawsuit centers on allegations by Yi Fang Chen, whose son was denied admission to Stuyvesant High School, that New York City’s revised admissions requirements intentionally discriminate against Asian students while increasing enrollment among Black and Hispanic students. Chen filed the lawsuit in April, accusing the city of violating the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.
“Delayed justice is always frustrating, but we remain confident that the courts will ultimately uphold core equal protection principles and ensure that no student, including our client’s son, is treated as less deserving of educational opportunities because of their race,” Dean McGee, an attorney for the plaintiff with Pacific Legal Foundation, told Fox News Digital.

Sotomayor did not offer an explanation Monday for denying the emergency bid, which stems from a lawsuit pending in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
Chen’s son, identified as M.P. in court documents, scored a 558 on the Specialized High School Admissions Test — a requirement for admission. He was just three points shy of being admitted for the school year, but the lawsuit argues that M.P. would have been admitted if the city had not raised the cutoff score, a change attributed to the city reserving 20% of its admissions for students deemed “economically disadvantaged.” The change was part of Mayor Bill de Blasio’s expansion of the Discovery program in 2018.

The program was limited to students who attended middle schools where at least 60% of students were considered economically disadvantaged, meaning some economically disadvantaged students could be excluded from the program if their school fell below the threshold.
No student admitted through the Discovery program this year scored higher than 495 — at least 66 points below the cutoff for students admitted based solely on the SHSAT without economic disadvantage considered.

Although nearly three-quarters of Asian American students in New York City come from low-income families, many attended middle schools that did not meet the 60% Economic Need Index threshold.

The lawsuit points to internal communications from the New York City Department of Education and the Mayor’s Office that Chen’s attorneys allege show the program’s intent was to increase enrollment of Black and Hispanic students at the expense of Asian students.

“Yi Fang Chen’s son was denied a seat at Stuyvesant because the City turned a program meant to help economically disadvantaged students into a tool for racial engineering—one that actually excluded disadvantaged children throughout the city,” Dean McGee, an attorney with Pacific Legal Foundation, said in a statement. “Equal protection means treating kids as individuals, not as demographic statistics.”
