A Washington Heights high school principal is facing a probe by the New York City Department of Education for allegedly discriminating against white teachers. The probe was launched after faculty members at High School for Law and Public Service accused principal Paula Lev of discriminating against staff and conspiring to get a white colleague fired. He also met with dozens of staff members on June 24 to determine the conditions of their 'no confidence' vote. In 2019, faculty at Forest Hills High School in Queens filed a no-confidence vote against Principal Ben Sherman because he allegedly did nothing to stop students from smoking marijuana. Lev, whose salary was $165,542 last year, is married to Benjamin Lev, who is an assistant principal with the DoE.
