What is a low income school teacher?

Low income school teachers are educators who work in schools that serve communities with a high percentage of students from low-income families. These teachers often face unique challenges, such as limited resources, higher student needs, and larger class sizes. They play a crucial role in providing equitable education and helping to close achievement gaps. Their work is vital for supporting students' academic and personal growth in underserved areas.
