Elaine Weiss, Ph.D., is the National Coordinator for the Broader Bolder Approach to Education (BBA). Last year the Washington Post published an article revealing that an analysis of 2013 Federal Data showed that, for the first time in over 50 years, the majority of U.S. public school students came from low-income families. What is being done to help out these students? How is the poverty at home affecting students’ abilities to succeed in school? These the tough questions being asked and addressed by The Broader, Bolder Approach to Education national campaign. Dr. Elaine Weiss discusses these questions and explains the goals of the BBA campaign.
