Restoring Opportunity

At a time of spiraling income inequality, can our schools significantly improve the life chances of low-income children? Yes, conclude authors Greg Duncan and Richard Murnane. Restoring Opportunity lays out a meticulously researched case for how targeted interventions and support can significantly level the playing field between low-income children and their more fortunate peers. The alternative: if educational inequality is allowed to continue in our schools, many students are at risk of losing their opportunity for upward economic mobility that has been a defining feature of America.
