Author Elizabeth Witbeck explores the profound impact of poverty on educational access and outcomes. Through compelling case studies and research, she illustrates how students from low-income families face systemic barriers that hinder their academic success, including underfunded schools, inadequate resources, and limited extracurricular opportunities. Witbeck argues that these inequities perpetuate a cycle of poverty, as children in disadvantaged environments receive fewer chances to succeed academically and socially.
