I am ignorant to this subject. Tell me how does wher eyou come from equate to test scores.? You said kids from the inner city score less than wealthy kids. I know a few inner city kids (including myself) that do well on test and went to college and everything.
Another reason for this is that many inner-city kids tend to have jobs after school to help support the family, so that really cuts into study time.

But, I do see what you are saying. I think that if a child comes from a home that vaules education, no matter the financial status of that home, then whether they are from the inner-city or not should not matter if the child wants to be successful in school.
