which of the following statements regarding the variation between poor and wealthy communities are true? (select all that apply.)
poor communities have far fewer resources for schools than wealthier communities.
children in well - off neighborhoods are more likely to attend schools with proper funding.
poorer communities have just as equal access to funds due to federal funding.
wealthier families have the means to send their children to private schools.

Explanation:

• Poor communities generally lack resources compared to wealthy ones, so the first statement is true.
• Well - off neighborhoods often have better - funded schools, making the second statement valid.
• Federal funding does not ensure equal access to funds for poorer communities (in reality, local wealth often plays a big role in school funding, e.g., property - tax - based funding in some areas), so the third statement is false.
• Wealthier families typically have the financial ability to send their children to private schools, so the fourth statement is true.

Answer:

Poor communities have far fewer resources for schools than wealthier communities.
Children in well - off neighborhoods are more likely to attend schools with proper funding.
Wealthier families have the means to send their children to private schools.
