[quote=Anonymous]This is really disturbing. I wonder if it's a sign of a shrinking middle class. What types of resources do we need to focus our middle class kids that we don't? I understand the achievement gap with lower income kids. It's not just the schools. It's a complex mixture of culture, lack of resources, health issues, work issues, housing issues, personal safety issues, and nutrition/hunger issues. But I thought most of these very basic needs were met in the middle class.[/quote]
