GIFTED EDUCATION IN HIGH-POVERTY SCHOOLS FOREWORD BY CHESTER E. FINN, JR. AND AMBER M. NORTHERN The United States wastes an enormous amount of its human capital by failing to cultivate the innate talents of many of its young people, particularly high-ability girls and boys from disadvantaged and minority backgrounds. That failure exacts a great cost from the nation’s economy, widens painful gaps in income, frustrates efforts to spur upward mobility, contributes to civic decay and political division, and worsens the inequalities that plague so many elements of our society. All of this was reinforced in a widely noted recent study by Alex Bell, Raj Chetty, and colleagues at the Equality of Opportunity Project, which highlighted the inexcusable number of “lost Einsteins” among American students, most of whom come from disadvantaged backgrounds. Their team found that as early as third grade, math scores help to predict who will be awarded patents in later life—that’s the metric they used for “Einsteins”—but such scores explain less than one-third of the “innovation gap” between those growing up in high- versus low-income families.
