Hidden inequities lurk in many schools in the U.S. They might have high graduation rates, good test scores, and lots of students enrolling in college, etc. But if you dig a little deeper, you find black and Hispanic students, and poor students, are often not getting access to the same opportunities, and levels of success, as their white and affluent peers.
