Drawing upon decades of research and myriad authentic classroom
experiences, Kathleen M. Budge and William H. Parrett dispel
harmful myths, explain the facts, and urge educators to act against
the debilitating effects of poverty on their students. They share
the powerful voices of teachers-many of whom grew up in poverty-to
amplify the five classroom practices that permeate the culture of
successful high-poverty schools: (1) caring relationships and
advocacy, (2) high expectations and support, (3) commitment to
equity, (4) professional accountability for learning, and (5) the
courage and will to act. Readers will explore classroom-tested
strategies and practices, plus online templates and exercises that
can be used for personal reflection or ongoing collaboration with
colleagues. Disrupting Poverty provides teachers, administrators,
coaches, and others with the background information and the
practical tools needed to help students break free from the cycle
of poverty.
