It's often lack of everything else conflating the issue: if you don't fund healthcare, early childcare, mental health services, etc... you can't put it all on education to correct later. Not to mention a lot of the funding doesn't even make it to teachers at the end of the day, who despite these numbers are still having to go out and buy supplies with their own money. You can see anecdotes from teachers all across the country that they're expected to do more and more parenting-related tasks just to keep classrooms from complete chaos.
