A North Texas school district has apologized to a student who was
listed under the name "Black Girl" in a high school yearbook photo of
the school's National Honor Society.
All white students are identified by name in the photograph in the Waxahachie High School yearbook, which was distributed Friday. The teen identified as "Black Girl" is the only black student in the photo. Her name is Shadoyia Jones.
The label apparently was meant to be a placeholder until the yearbook staff could track down the student's name, district spokeswoman Candace Ahlfinger said in today's edition of the Waxahachie Daily Light.
