Black School Directors React to Teacher Cuts from the New Pittsburgh Courier
"When the Pittsburgh School Board voted to lay off nearly 300 teachers July 25, the vote was a unanimous 6-0, even if directors Mark Brentley, Sharene Shealey and Regina Holley had attended it would not have made a difference. The furloughs, it is hoped, will save the district more than $42 million through the next two years. Even so, Brentley said the cuts disproportionally target Black students and he would have voted against them."
