Effects Of Socio Economic Status (SES)
• There is a discrepancy between low SES (often including ELL) and high SES student achievement.
“On Average, children from low-income families acquire language at a slower rate & demonstrate both differences in language use and poorer language skills than children from higher income families. Low SES is also a correlate of the diagnosis of specific language disorders.”
--The MIT Encyclopedia of Communication Disorders, Raymond Kent
