    1. Thankfully, poor children may have access to the federally funded Head Start program, but children of the wealthy have a dif~erent kind of head start.

      I completely agree with this. Wealthy children frequently have access to services that low-income students do not, such as parental academic help and college guidance. However, right now most school does have college guidance but families that are wealthy can get extra help for their kids. While government programs like Head Start seek to help low-income students, the advantages that wealthier children have, such as better-funded schools, private tutoring, and extracurricular activities continue to create a huge gap. Because of these differences, I doubt there will ever be a genuinely fair chance to succeed in education for low- and high-income students.
