The idea that schools can have little influence on children coming from poor homes and neighborhoods is increasingly being challenged by the best available research evidence. Given stronger organizational cultures and more strategic investments in youth, schools can see better outcomes, even with current resource levels. With more resources, there is every reason to think they could do better still.
