   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-3041
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Beam and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Equal Educational Opportunities Act. In suit alleging district discriminated against students who had recently immigrated to the U.S., plaintiffs failed to state a Title VII claim because they failed to show that the district's policy of delayed learning disability testing for non-English language students was discrimination on the basis of national origin; deficient programming in and of itself is not evidence of intentional discrimination on the basis of national origin, and plaintiffs failed to show a similarly situated comparison group the school treated more favorably; assuming the district's failure to take appropriate action to overcome language barriers that impeded equal participation in learning was on account of national origin, the district court did not err in dismissing plaintiffs' Equal Education Opportunities Act claim because injunctive relief would not be available to these plaintiffs because none of them attend the school or will ever return and because money damages are not provided for in the Act.
