You can't elevate people. Communities get the best education they can provide, some communities have no idea how education works and sabotage it through their ignorance. There is no way to provide 'better education' to a group of people when a large subset of that group attack teachers, commit felonies in the school such as assaulting teachers and other students, especially when laws prevent any attempt to separate violent and disruptive students. Of course many students come from families where education is considered pointless, have no books in their houses, have no well educated role models in their family or even among all the people they have ever known well. So it's very easy (not to mention ignorant) to just say 'just give everyone a great education', but frankly it is a really ignorant thing to say. People are trying very hard to do exactly what you are recommending, massive amounts of money are being spent, and yet they are failing. For example, Washington DC spends over $30,000 per year PER STUDENT. Despite this, they have something like an 20% literacy rate. I would love to hear your plan? Should we spend $60,000 a year and get that literacy rate up to 21%? What is your plan to 'elevate' these students??
