After our discussion in class today, I got to thinking about how a person's "class" will always effect them. I found this website:

Where you can look up school graduation rates for New York State. For example, a "nice" neighborhood with a good school district, Amherst, has a graduation rate of 90% with 56% of students graduating with an advanced regents diploma. While Buffalo school P82 has a graduation rate of only 14% with none of the students getting an advanced regents, or plain regents diploma. Obviously one of these schools is in the city, and one in the suburbs. But it shows perfectly how drastically class can, and will, effect you.
