Black girls in Boston’s schools face much harsher school discipline than their white peers but are often overlooked in school reform efforts, a new report says. The report, by the African American Policy Forum and Columbia Law School’s Center for Intersectionality and Social Policy Studies (CISPS), found that the number of disciplinary cases involving black girls were 11 times more than cases involving their white counterparts, despite there being less than three times as many black students in Boston schools.
