Question.4934 - Module #7 DiscussionIntelligence testing in the United States has been based on the assumption that intelligence is innate. This allows its proponents to discount the importance of education as a moderating factor. However, as it is recognized that education is the key to social mobility, the quality of education becomes an important factor. The quality of public schools is tied to and determined by real estate taxes levied against the residential and business buildings within a supporting school district. While there have been innumerable curricular reforms introduced over the years to improve the quality of public education, there have been far fewer attempts to overhaul the basic funding formulas of public schools. (Vermont is an exceptionLinks to an external site..) This has meant that disadvantaged communities have fewer opportunities to make up the educational deficits of their students. Although in the aggregate the number of struggling schools among predominantly non-Latino White students is higher, as a percentage, underfunding for schools in communities of color is far more pervasive. Why do you think the underlying funding of public schools has never been redressed? And secondly, what reforms might you suggest to equip public schools with the tools and resources needed to address the educational deficit of disadvantaged communities?
