BURYING THE LEDE.

High-poverty schools often staffed by rotating cast of substitutes.  No continuity, sometimes the substitutes aren't really prepared to teach mathematics or chemistry.

The reader has to scroll way down to get to the heart of the matter.

The story dates to the closing years of the Obama administration, with the predictable perspective.

“This is not an issue that we see in high-income communities,” said Catherine E. Lhamon, assistant secretary for civil rights at the U.S. Department of Education. “We know that we are shortchanging our kids and that it’s not a phenomenon that is equally borne across our school districts.”

Neither she nor the Post are going to say "pay and working conditions," but it's pay and working conditions.

In most districts, teachers earn the same salary regardless of their school assignment. Some see high-poverty schools as more difficult because many students come to school already behind academically and facing serious challenges in their lives, many of which are beyond a teacher’s control.

And it is not uncommon for veteran teachers to feel that they are fending for themselves without instructional support or consistent, school-wide expectations for student behavior.

Consistent, school-wide expectations? Isn't that oppressive, requiring students to code-shift into white supremacy culture?
