LEESBURG, Va. (AP) — Loudoun County Public Schools have agreed to a series of reforms following an investigation by the Virginia Attorney General's Office into racial discrimination in the admissions policies at an elite magnet school.

The agreement announced Thursday by Attorney General Mark Herring goes beyond the admissions policies at the new Academies of Loudoun, a science and technology high school established in 2018 with a selective admissions process. African American students have been significantly underrepresented in the school's student body.
