What do you tell a poor black gifted student? "Sorry friend, no gifted classes for you the gifted classes were making the administration look bad. That is more important than your accademic career."
Why do you assume this is about making the school look bad, and not that there might be some serious issue if black/hispanic people are not performing as well as others. They are launching an investigation into the matter, not removing the advanced classes. Did you misread the word 'suspend'?
