Family Socio-economic Status
The more economically disadvantaged tend to struggle to attain academic success due to problems with money and the culture around it. Though there is not one reason students perform worse on standardized measures of academic progress or success, such as the SAT and ACT, low-income students and districts perform worse on these tests. Some challenge whether the tests and metrics that measure academic success are fair.
