We all know of people who have been born into poverty, rose up and have become financially very successful. But for every one of these success stories, there are hundreds of people who didn’t move out of poverty. Hundreds of children who were once sponges for learning and building new skills and abilities, but hit that age of comparison and find that they didn’t measure up to what our society says is success. This is our societies fault, not the kids. Join us to explore how poverty impacts a students educational journey.
