NYC will pay out $1.8 billion to minorities who failed ‘racist’ teacher test

“As of Friday, 225 people who failed the Liberal Arts and Sciences Test used for teacher licensing from 1994 to 2014 had already been notified they’re getting settlements of at least $1 million [each],” according to an analysis of Manhattan federal court records conducted by the Post.

More than 90 percent of white people who took the 80-question multiple-choice quiz earned a passing score, according to The Post. However, black applicants had a pass rate of between 51 and 62 percent, and Latinos passed 47 to 55 percent of the time.

Some individuals who did not become teachers will be awarded more than $1 million each as well as possible pensions, The Post reported Saturday.

Herman Grim of Queens on July 5 was given the largest individual award at the time of the article’s publication, a total of $2,055,383. That figure “includes $1,583,114 in back pay for time never clocked, lost interest accrued, and other compensation,” according to The Post.
