These reports are submitted to the Department of Justice two times a year.<\/p>\n<p>Hardy said the District has worked very hard to attempt to meet the requirements of hiring staff that is reflective of the student population.  He said he has invited the Justice Department to visit to tour the campuses and see the District programs in action, and he said the invitation has been accepted.  Hardy says that when Justice Department reps visit, there will be open invitations and public meetings so community members can voice their opinions.<\/p>\n<p>Hardy added that if the desegregation order were lifted, Tyler ISD could save money in a number of areas including transportation and operating costs.  He did stress that neither Tyler ISD, nor the Department of Justice, has filed any motions regarding the desegregation order.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8212; Tyler ISD attorney John Hardy Thursday night gave the Board of Trustees a brief update regarding the 1970 special desegregation court order placed on TISD, with an eye on possibly having the order lifted.
