I believe students from low-income communities face a huge challenge that results from inequalities in wealth distribution. Poor communities lack of distribution of resources that mainly benefit kids, women and the ederly. It is sad to see that to the world our country is presented at "the land of the opportunities," but in reality, there is little chance for poor people to enjoy of those "scarce opportunities." There are many ways in which the academic potential of a student living in these communities can be affected. For instance, a high school student who was exposed to math textbooks in his childhood because his or her community lacks of government resources, may face many difficulties and low performance in this subject.
