[quote=Anonymous]To 18:11 - I'm a poverty law analyst (been doing this work since the late 90s), and my comments weren't solely related to that one report. Rather, they were based on all the research I've read or heard about at conferences along with my decades of working on these issues with service providers and policymakers on the national, state and local levels. In short: you can't expect poor kids from low income homes to learn just as easily as their more advantaged peers. Family life, housing instability, food insecurity, exposure to violence, etc have a significant impact on a child's ability to succeed in school and life. Teachers are not social workers.
