The Invisible Achievement Gap

A new report highlights the educational plight that children in foster care face on a daily basis, which ultimately affects them for a lifetime.  

"This report, The Invisible Achievement Gap, Part 1: Education Outcomes of Students in Foster Care in California’s Public Schools, sponsored by the Stuart Foundation, underscores and refines the message from a growing body of research literature that students in foster care constitute a distinct subgroup of academically at-risk students—a message that has not yet been clearly or fully translated from research to policy to practice."
