“The Lesson”, by Toni Cade Bambara, is a short story which shows that while education is a powerful and essential tool for changing one’s circumstances when it comes to social status, it is ultimately how we are affected internally by the things we learn that matters the most. It isn’t as simple as merely being educated or working hard. Hard work doesn’t necessarily guarantee success, and education doesn’t necessarily influence change. The psychological effects of poverty can lead individuals to feel trapped in their circumstances, and oftentimes an equal amount of luck is needed in addition to hard work, emotional and mental resilience, and education to overcome the obstacles to financial security. Economic status can cause people to feel

In both the school and home setting these children lack the proper resources which they need to succeed academically. Across the country, people have begun creating programs which aim to help children in poverty succeed, despite their socioeconomic status. These programs range from after-school reading, tutoring services, charter schools, and free summer programs. All of these programs provide children with extra academic help which they may not be receiving in school or at home.

Schools servicing low income students are being shortchanged districts disproportionately distribute funds. According to a report from the U.S. Department of Education, “The analysis of new data on 2008-09 school level expenditures show that many high-poverty schools receive less than their fair share of state and local funding, leaving students in high-poverty schools with fewer resources than schools attended by their wealthier peers.” Providing more resources and a better education for students in wealthier areas not only increases the achievement gap, but it increases the social status gap in America. While the nation acknowledges that inequality is an issue, proper action is not being taken. Until this issue is seriously addressed and action is taken, and poorer schools are provided the necessary tools to succeed, the public school system in America will not have the opportunity to produced skilled

I believe that the rates of poverty are alarming yet it is an eye-opening realization. Poverty among youth is much greater in underserved communities as opposed to areas that have a higher population of residents. Poverty negatively affects the physical and mental health of children in these communities as well as their overall well-being. Children and families in these communities are also more likely to face undesirable circumstances, such as inadequate housing, homelessness, food insecurity, inadequate child care, lack of access to health care, as well as hazardous neighborhoods. Poverty also affects a child’s educational attainment and puts them at-risk for performing poorly in school, dropping out of school, and/or having developmental delays that affect their school functioning.

Education in poverty-stricken areas is a luxury that many people do not receive and has always been a fight from the beginning of Mississippi’s historical roots. The battle for adequate education began over the issue of segregation and continues to hinder teens’ ability to learn. One of the reasons that education is unsatisfactory in many parts of Mississippi is because education and poverty are interrelated. Poverty has a negative impact on the student’s achievements and academic success and puts them at disadvantages for their futures. Although Mississippi is notorious for its major issues, the correlation of poverty and education have persisted as some of the most pressing issues that require immediate attention.
