In this assignment, you will compose a short brief that analyzes  socioeconomic realities and diverse family structures by providing  examples from your local context.  For example, you might consider the  teachers compared to the students they teach.  You can find information  on your local context by looking at demographic statistics on your local  area, school districts’ websites, and local media (such as news  articles on current events).  Be sure to link theoretical ideas from  your review of the literature on this topic to practical  solutions/strategies for your community and/or school.

Consider the topic of family structures and socioeconomic issues  today.  Provide research and evidence from the course readings and other  references from the NCU Library.  Cite statistics on poverty, family  structures, the achievement gap in order to support your analysis of  your local community/school.  If citing the name of a school district,  school, and/or any individuals (students, teachers, administrators,  etc.), please use alternative names to protect the individuals’  identities. 

Length: 2-3 pages, not including title and reference pages
