Poorly Funded Schools in Bay Area vs Salvage Inequalities

While researching all the poorly funded public schools in the Bay Area, I was surprised by how many schools made it on the list. There are different types of so called “Tiers” to put schools in different categories by poorly they are doing. There is a long list of schools that need help according to the website. Comparing this to the book Salvage Inequalities, it is similar in how many schools need better funding’s. In the book, there are some schools that are poorly funded while there are other schools not too far away that have great funding. The better funded schools have the correct resources and teachers to make great students. While the poor schools had teachers who don’t show up to class or don’t teach the material correctly. Schools that don’t have the correct funding for their resources and teachers can result in teachers that aren’t ready to teach or no teachers at all. This relates to my focus on my paper because poorly funded public schools can have bad teachers where they will not be motivated to motivate children to study and work hard. The may fail and the graduation rate for the school will be lowered. If the school’s graduation rate is too low, they may not get funding from the county, state, or country.  This goes in a cycle where the schools will always be poorly funded.
