Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares announced Monday that his office would expand a civil rights investigation into Thomas Jefferson High School to include all of Fairfax County Public Schools after several high school principals apologized for failing to recognize National Merit Commended Students.
The announcement from the attorney general comes just days after principals at Langley and Westfield High Schools reportedly apologized last week for failing to inform students of the commendation and said they would be taking steps to inform college admissions offices of the recognition, according to the Fairfax Times.
The email apologies from Langley High School principal Kimberly Greer and Westfield High School principal Tony DiBari said that students who were recognized as Commended Students by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation were not informed during the fall semester, as was customary.
