I’ve worked in k-12 philanthropy and now [b]policy think tank[/b].
Even gates foundation is far from cutting edge.

To date the only thing we have seen be effective at increasing academic performance, lowering truancy, reducing behavior issues, and minimizing possible effects of possible teacher/admin racial biases has been parochial school programs like KIPP, Seton, etc. Also study the ones in England inundated with refugees.

The students wear uniforms, teachers hold the same high bar for everyone, two teachers per class for Pk-2, differentiation and pullout groups for grades 2+,  discipline for breaking serious class rules, some higher order or religious tenets instilled.

If I were a poor Hispanic or poor black I would seek this out. Or if I were an activist or social worker I would advise this and seek this out. The public school arena, particular a large county run one, will not be effective to its various segments.
