Washington Post Article about Poverty and Education

One of my favorite library people, Dr. Lesesne, put a link to an interesting article about education via her twitter feed.  Here is the link http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2013/10/09/the-bottom-line-on-sat-scores-in-one-chart/.  It really is eye opening but nothing new to those of us who have the honor of working with kiddos whose families may not have the money or knowledge to take extra prep classes or have knowledge building experiences.  I just found it interesting to see it in chart form, since I love charts.  It has so many implications for us as educators, students and parents.
