Question:
My mom works as a second grade teacher where all the low income students go to. They had a meeting with the board of education to discuss why they couldn't have the higher income students at their school. Because its not fair to the low income students cuz they wont be able to do as many things as a school with a same amount of lower and higher income students. Lets say that one school that you go to has all the lower income students so ya'll can't afford to buy enough lets say math books to go around. your skewl only has 600 students. and the school right across the street has a lot bigger amount of higher income students so their over there with more math books, six portables so their busting at the seems trying to hold all there students in their skewl. they have 998 students. Now see my mom told me that the skewl board was just putting all of those high income students over there because that skewl is trying to get the blue ribbon award which goes to the best skewl in our county, thats why they have all the higher income students because some people on the skewl board think that higher income students have better scores on the finals at the end of the year. Do you think that this is fair to leave my moms skool so "less able" to do these things that the more fortunate schools do?

Choices:
No, I dont think that this is fair at all the less fortunate wont ever get good opprotunities.

I'll assume your school couldn't afford spelling tests.
