Another study links poverty to poor results at Louisiana schools β€’ Louisiana Illuminator A recent state analysis of Louisiana schools reflects what numerous other studies across the country have found: Poverty has a significant impact on student performance.

β€œ71% of students who attend Louisiana’s public schools are considered economically disadvantaged”. I’m pretty sure posting the 10 Commandments or just about anything else in Louisiana classrooms won’t solve the issues that come w/ chronic poverty.

Deadly bombing of Iran primary school β€˜a grave violation of humanitarian law’: UNESCO The UN education agency, UNESCO, says that the bombing of a primary school during the US and Israeli military attacks on Iran on Saturday constitutes a grave violation of humanitarian law.

The US-Israel missile strike on a girls' primary school in Iran has killed 150, "including numerous students. The killing of pupils in a place dedicated to learning constitutes a grave violation of the protection afforded to schools under international humanitarian law."
