According to recent statistics, 51% of our nation's children now live in poverty and the number appears to be growing. In New York State, about one in five children lives below the traditional measure of poverty and about half of those children live in extreme poverty. This seminar will explore the implications of poverty and socioeconomic issues on our students. Participants will examine the importance of building relationships and a sense of community within schools as well as creating a school environment that effectively engages students from low socioeconomic status as a way to combat poverty.
