America’s education system is based on the assumption that barring illness or an extraordinary event, students are in class every weekday. So strong is this assumption that it is not even measured. Indeed, it is the rare state education department, school district or principal that can tell you how many students have missed 10 percent or more of the school year or in the previous year missed a month or more school − two common definitions of chronic absence.

Poverty has negatively affected the Education in America
There are almost 2,7 million
The most people who have effected by poverty are low income.
They extremely have a hard time to build their future. According to the New York Times, “Another 2.6 million people slipped into poverty in the United States last year. According to the Census Bureau reported , and the number of Americans living below the official poverty line, 46.2 million people, was the highest number in the 52 years the bureau has been publishing figures on it. And in new signs of distress among the middle class, median household incomes fell last year to levels last seen in 1996.Lower income families who have a large number of children will accord this problem .The households can't cover the home needing. They have not the all ability to cover the family needing. There are many issues that really impact these people. There is so much stuff for lower income to cover in united state. They must to buy car insurance, health insurance, school tuition and others households needing."
By the year 2020, the majority of students in America's public schools will be living in circumstances that will categorize them as at risk of educational failure. A person's education is closely linked to the individual's life chances, income, and well being"
(Battle and Lewis 2002). Moreover, in the last ten years, there was growing a huge gap between the top income class and the less income class
There are three issues which are the most effected the education in America. They are food supply, The lower income people can't provide enough food for themselves. The households are having a hard time to provide en enough food for their children. Drop-off in the reach of U.S. summer nutrition programs in 2010 and ongoing budget-cutting at state and local levels suggest that many schoolchildren in the United States will face another summer of hunger this year. According to a new report from the Food Research and Action Center, despite record numbers of children receiving free and reduced-price meals during the 2009-10 school years, participation in federal summer nutrition programs fell nationally in 2010.

Inequality in American Schools
Puritans of Massachusetts established the first public school and decided that these schools will get funds from property-tax receipts. Initially, the system of using property tax to fund local school was performing equally. In her article, XXX argues that education is unequal in the United States because students from poor district perform at levels several grades below those from the richer district. This is because of inequality in the money supplies to schools to fund public schools. Public schools are financed by different states depending on their contribution to tax collection. Most of the poor districts contribute low property tax because properties are less valued and only poor people stay in those districts. Because of this, public utilities such as schools lack adequate resources to support learning. The standard measure for economic hardship does not present the magnitude of the learning gap between poorest and richest students. The federal government and education sector in the United States needs to formulate policies that support the implementation of equal acts.
Public education became mandatory at the end of the 19th century and the responsibility for educating students was given to states rather than the national government. States gave more money for schools, even for schools that relied on property tax. However, regional disparities that arose due to increased urbanization lead to inequalities in schools. Areas with less valued properties or poor families had less money available for schools. As a result, schools in poor districts had fewer resources to support education. In the early 20th century, states started to provide grants to all districts to ensure equitable funding. Nonetheless, wealthier districts increased property values making the state subsidies to increased, hence, causing more education disparities. Advocates and activists have filed claims to push for equality in the American education system. Most of these efforts failed due to opposition in the Congress, the audience for this essay is to inform the federal government and local government that poor districts where most of the disadvantages students come from need more money to finance their education.
States should design a formula that will allow districts to share revenues for education to be more equitable. My argument is that states should give poor district enough money for disadvantaged students to have the ability to perform as wealthier students. Students in wealthier district have access to school psychologists, personal laptops, up-to-date exercise books, and counsellors. High-poverty areas do not access these resources. These areas have more students who need extra help, yet they have fewer tutors, guidance counsellors, and psychologists (Semuels, p1). They also have poorly paid teachers, bigger classes size, and poor facilities. This situation is experie ...

Module OverviewLiberal and Market Models of Higher Education .docxaudeleypearl
Module Overview:
Liberal and Market Models of Higher Education Policy
Module Five focuses on two states, California and Minnesota, as the complexities of higher education policy are examined and the variety of political, social, economic, and environmental factors contributing to the ways in which policies are developed are discussed. These policies, in turn, deeply impact the higher education systems within both states, with a particularly strong influence on funding models for colleges and universities.
Higher Education Policy in California
The California Master Plan for Higher Education guided the development of three campus systems in California: the University of California (UC), California State University (CSU), and California Community Colleges systems (St. John, Daun-Barnett, & Moronski-Chapman, 2013). Nearly four out of five college students in California attend one of the three public education systems and three out of every four bachelor degrees awarded annually are from either the UC or CSU systems (Johnson, 2014). Yet, the state is facing somewhat of an education crisis and Johnson projects a shortfall of one million college graduates by 2025.
In recent years, the historic California model has broken down as the systems have been negatively impacted by the state’s fiscal woes. While colleges and universities have responded to funding cuts by reducing expenses, including cutting administrative costs and hiring more non-tenure track faculty, declines in state support have forced the UC system to increase tuition fees by 50% in three years while CSU fees have increase by 47% in the same period (Johnson, Cook, Murphy, and Weston, 2014). Students are increasingly becoming indebted in order to accomplish their educational goals in California; the average loan amounts among students have risen 36% between 2005 and 2010 (a figure adjusted for inflation) (Johnson, 2014). Hoping to save expenses, many students begin their college educations at California community colleges, which have become so overcrowded that in 2012, 137,000 students could not enroll into at least one class that they needed and community colleges resorted to “rationing” courses (Dellner, 2012). This evidence suggests new changes are needed in the California state system to support students at all levels of enrollment.
In part, California’s steady decreases in higher education funding are a consequence of a need to fund other state services; for example, Johnson (2012) notes that from 2002 to 2012, state expenditures for higher education fell by close to 10% whereas expenditures for corrections and rehabilitation increased by 26%. Historical trends suggest that the state’s priorities began shifting from higher education toward corrections since the 1970s, even though the majority of Californians (68%) opposed spending cuts in higher education to reduce state budget deficits and 62% supported spending cuts in corrections to balance state budgets (Baldassare, Bonner, Pet.
AN INTERIM REPORT ON A PILOT CREDITRECOVERY PROGRAM IN A LAR.docxnettletondevon
AN INTERIM REPORT ON A PILOT CREDIT
RECOVERY PROGRAM IN A LARGE, SUBURBAN
MIDWESTERN HIGH SCHOOL

School policy regarding student failure of courses at the K-12
level generally focuses on grade retendon or social promotion,
neither of which addresses the students' needs. Grade retention
has never been effective in helping students gain mastery of
course objectives. To reduce the numbers of social promotions,
many states require 8th graders to earn a passing score on state-
mandated standardized tests. If students do not earn the required
score, they are not allowed to matriculate to the next grade,
regardless of their teacher-assigned course grades (Ezarik,
2003). A relatively unique approach to help students who have
failed one or more courses at the high school level is a credit
recovery program. Though details of such programs vary from
district to district, the one unifying aspect for atiy credit recov-
ery program is the opportunity for students to earn credit for a
course failed.
The purpose of this paper is to describe a pilot credit recovery
program implemented in a large suburban high school in the
Midwest. Historical, longitudinal student data revealed that
freshmen who fail at least one course are four times more likely
to fail to graduate in four years (R. Hankey, personal communi-
cation, July, 2009). With this is mind, the school developed a
pilot credit recovery program for freshmen who had failed at
least one course; online and traditional curricula were provided.
The short-term goal was to provide an opportutiity for freshmen
to recover credits lost due to failure; the long-term goal was to
reduce the dropout rate for freshmen who had failed at least one
course, and consequently contribute to a higher graduation rate
for the freshman class. This paper presents the results of the first
cohort of students who completed the pilot program after their
freshman year and who have now completed their second year
of high school.

7. School board members who met in Washington said that's a problem, because their costs are rising faster than inflation. Wage and benefit costs, which make up the bulk of school budgets, have been going up, along with energy prices.
8. The belt tightening also comes as schools face mounting pressure to boost student achievement under state initiatives and the federal No Child Left Behind Law, which sanctions schools that fail to raise scores and reduce learning gaps between minority and white students and low-income kids and wealthier ones.

10. EVEN WEALTHY SCHOOL DISTRICTS ARE FEELING THE PINCH: In the booming northern Virginia county of Fairfax, school officials are contemplating cuts such as requiring students to pick up their own tabs for Advanced Placement tests.It's all a reversal from recent years, when home values in many parts of the country skyrocketed and schools pocketed extra money in property tax revenue.It's unclear how much property values could come down, and the timing could vary nationwide, since homes are reassessed on varying schedules."The watchword right now is wait and see," said Michael Griffith, a school finance analyst at the Education Commission of the States, based in Denver, Colo.

Which is a problem since teachers are being cut but the same number of students are still attending which just makes the classes bigger. That is a bad thing because I don’t seem to learn well in big classes and then the teacher does not have a lot of time to help you individually.
