With everything going on in our nation (USA) and around the world, this question has come up many times: How come public schools in poorer neighborhoods aren’t as good as public schools in affluent neighborhoods?
Many people have been telling me that some states, like CA, have a general fund for public schools where they collect tax money and distribute it amongst schools evenly. Whether that fund exists or not, how come, for example, LAUSD schools in Crenshaw, CA are worse than schools in more affluent neighborhoods of Los Angeles.
I am having trouble finding articles or even understanding about this. I was hoping someone with more understanding can explain.

If it’s in the same county, then it basically comes down to the teachers. No one wants to take a job that’s multiple times more difficult and challenging for the same pay, especially when you are underpaid and work more than your contract hours. So basically if you aren’t dumb you try to move to a “good” school ASAP.
