U.S. Education: Still Separate and Unequal

Separate and Unequal
On average, schools serving more minority populations have less-experienced, lower-paid teachers who are less likely to be certified.
A report from the Center for American Progress found that a 10 percentage point increase in students of color at a school is associated with a decrease in per-pupil spending of $75.
Disparities in course offerings mean students of color have fewer opportunities to challenge themselves with more difficult courses — the type of courses needed to prepare for a four-year college degree or for a high-paying career in STEM.
