That's a weird study with loads of room for very hard to track bias. Even the author leaves the door open....
"The most common question we've gotten is whether or not the gender of the teacher matters in regards to grading students," Cornwell said. "But that's a question we can't answer because there's just not enough data available. As you can probably guess, the great majority of elementary school teachers are women."
If this is the foundation of your argument why women have it better than men here in the US you'll never get far. Especially w anyone outside of people who agree with you strictly because they like your agenda.

He leaves the door open as to how much the sex of the teacher plays a role in what's going on. The statistics about boys in education are clear. Is there a gender bias towards male students among mostly female teachers? I don't know. I did not experience that. Are girls better suited than boys to the strict and confining classroom setting in today's education? Absolutely. Are boys falling behind? Absolutely. Here is an interesting perspective from a teacher.

and no, this is not the cornerstone of my argument that females have a systemic advantage in todays America. It's just more interesting than citing legal precedents in divorce courts and laws/regulations that favor women over men.
