I do believe the inequities need to be examined and addressed, but unfortunately by the time a student is old enough to take AP courses, the time may have passed. The inequities begin in the home before a child hits school and our system has danced around the problem of low SES and subsequent deficiencies for much too long, seemingly grasping for this bandaid then that bandaid, never really catching a true remedy.

We avoid the real problem because there's no easy solution and no money to be made from it.
