The achievement gap is one of the most talked about issues in U.S.
education. It shows up in grades, standardized test scores, course
selection, dropout rates, and college completion. This book argues
that the focus on the gap is misplaced. Today, we need to look at the
societal factors that have accumulated over time and have resulted in
poverty level pay for teachers, lack of resources in out poorest
schools and an abundance of children entering our schools unprepared.
Dr. Wages has written a detailed, well documented book that can serve
as an informative resource to create an awareness of the
multidimensional and complex issues of poverty.
