[quote=Anonymous]What you are describing is not so much an economic resource issue as it is about not having an understanding of what they need and not seeking out what they need even when it's freely available. It's not "the system" that's uneven in any institutionalized sense - all the same things are available to all students in the public school system and public charter system. All fine and good to complain about privates, but the reality there is that (per NCED) 90% of Americans cannot send their kids to privates - and even that number of private school enrollments has been dropping. What's most uneven is the part outside of the system, specifically things like family support and cultural values that emphasize the need for proper education and proper life skills. [/quote]
