Schools serving low-income students are getting shortchanged
From The New York Times: A U.S. Department of Education report says tens of thousands of schools serving low-income students are being shortchanged because districts spend fewer state and local dollars on teacher salaries in those schools than on salaries in schools serving higher-income students. The report, Comparability of State and Local Expenditures Among Schools Within Districts, is based on data collected from 84,000 public schools.
