Abstract
Ornstein and Levine provide documen tation regarding the relationship be tween the socioeconomics of students' lives and their subsequent capacity to perform effectively in school contexts. Research aimed at understanding and prescribing methods of overcoming the problems of urban low achieving stu dents is discussed in the form of class room and extra-classroom realities. The authors then suggest selected re form measures for ameliorating those realities that plague urban schools.Keywords
