Jewish school in Hyde Park tried to push out black teen, lawsuit claims - Why do I have this funny feeling the black teen, Max McCullough is the PROBLEM and NOT the school?

Very unusual... A single black mother! Hardly ever hear of that! I also love the pandering Chicago newspapers who blame the school and not the STUDENT! Look at that look on momma's face... she hates EVERYBODY!

Fourteen-year old Larry “Max” Saulsberry didn’t go to school this week, though it wasn’t because of a teachers strike.

The one-time student from Hyde Park has yet to see the inside of a classroom this school year because of what his mother calls a racial dispute that’s landed in the courts and has pit her family against the boy’s private Jewish day school.

Last week, Tamara McCullough sued Akiba Schechter Jewish Day School, claiming the principal didn’t re-enroll her son because he’s male and black.
