Descripción:

Lau v. Nichols, 414 U.S. 563 (1974), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court unanimously decided that the lack of supplemental language instruction in public school for students with limited English proficiency violated the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The court held that since non-English speakers were denied a meaningful education, the disparate impact caused by the school policy violated the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the school district was demanded to provide students with "appropriate relief".

My interpretation: This case addresses the needs of Limited English Speaking Abilities students. It stimulates the school district to provide the same treatment for all students, even though some students were disadvantaged due to their limited fluency in English.
