Re: Complaint regarding discrimination on the basis of race and disability
Jefferson Parish, Louisiana

To Whom It May Concern:
Yesterday morning, May 17, 2012, the Southern Poverty Law Center filed an administrative
complaint on behalf of four named complainants and all similarly situated students against the
Jefferson Parish Public School System (“JPPSS”) and the Jefferson Parish School Board
(“JPSB”) for discrimination on the basis of race and disability. We are writing to supplement
the complaint with new information.
Yesterday afternoon, the local newspaper, The Times-Picayune, ran an article about our filing
with the Office for Civil Rights. The Times Picayune permits readers to comment on an article
on their website, and displays the comments for the public to read following each story. An
employee of JPPSS, Mark Traina, posted comments about race that warrant further review in
light of his position with JPPSS.
Mark Traina is a school psychologist for JPPSS, and he participates in decisions related to
students’ removal to the alternative schools. He is responsible for the development of
functional behavior assessments and behavior support plans for students in JPPSS, and he is a
participant in most of the district’s manifestation determination review decisions for students
with disabilities. It is our understanding that he is currently or has previously served as hearing
officer in JPPSS, and as such, he makes or has made determinations about students’ expulsions
from school or removals to the alternative school. He participated in the removal decisions of
several of the named complainants in the May 17, 2012 administrative complaint.

On the afternoon of May 17, Mr. Traina posted racially hostile language to The TimesPicayune website, www.nola.com. In particular, he states, “One only needs to read the Times
Picayune to see who the real trouble makers are. Sadly, it is disproportionately young black
males. Everyone knows that our jails throughout the United States are disproportionately filled
with black people. Why would the rate be any different in an educational environment?” Mr.
Traina goes on to recite inflammatory statements about African Americans and then ends his
rant with “if it looks like a Duck, and quacks like a Duck and walks like a Duck it probably
ain’t no Chicken!”
We are deeply concerned by Mr. Traina’s comments. He states that he sees African American
students as “trouble makers.” This provides further explanation for why African American
students bear the brunt of the removals to the alternative schools in JPPSS. There is a clear
connection between the use of subjective judgments on student conduct, drawn from opinions
like Mr. Traina’s, and the disproportionate rates of discipline for African-American students in
Jefferson Parish schools. African American students are far more likely than their white
classmates to be punished or referred to the alternative schools, if these comments reflect the
subjective judgment of district personnel in positions of authority, such as Mr. Traina.
After reviewing Mr. Traina’s comments on www.nola.com, we reviewed the comments
publicly available on his Twitter account (see attached screen shots). These comments include:
• “Young Black Thugs who won’t follow the law need to be put down not incarcerated.
Put down like the Dogs they are!” (January 14, 2012)
• “Serpas should be warning people to STAY THE HELL OUT OF NEW ORLEANS!
These Black Dudes will Kill You!” (January 13, 2012)
• “We need many Young Black Males living Thug Lives to lay down their Weapons, get
Educated and start contributing to Society” (January 16, 2012)
• “Two additional suspects arrested in murder of 11-year-old Harvey boy: Angry Young
black Males with no respect for Life! Destroying the U.S.” (January 13, 2012)
• “Protesters march-Florida! How come White People don’t Protest when Blacks kill
Whites which occurs too often? Is that a politically correct?” (March 31, 2012)
• “2 New Orleans policemen shot, 1 suspect dead, another injured: UPDATE | NOLA
Quick Someone call David Duke before the NAACP gets here!” (March 4, 2012)
• “Santorum wins Mississippi and Alabama primaries: I grew up in Mississippi, Alabama
and Louisiana-I am a Wallace Man at Heart!” (March 13, 2012)
Mr. Traina’s comments corroborate our claims that African American students are victims of
discrimination and targets for discipline in Jefferson Parish public schools. We have attached a
full transcript of Mr. Traina’s comments to The Times Picayune, and we have included screen
shots of the posting on The Times Picayune website and of Mr. Traina’s Twitter feeds. We
would like this information to be considered as a supplement to the Administrative Complaint
filed yesterday with your office, and we renew our request for a full compliance review of
JPPSS.

SPLC: Remember Kyle Daniel Craig
Remember Kyle Daniel Craig — just 26-years-old, a loving husband and father.
He left home one day to purchase a used ATV through Facebook Marketplace… and never returned.
When he stopped responding to calls, his frantic family located his body dumped along a roadside, shot multiple times.
Five suspects were later charged in his murder: Parveion Harris, Darius Erving, Montavious Landfair, Brock Banks, and Akarion Johnson. Authorities say they lured him into a robbery to steal the cash he was carrying.
Darius Erving has now been sentenced to 30 years in prison. The cases against the other four defendants are still pending.
