It's important to remember that the research findings related to SES describe group differences, and individuals within groups will vary widely. For example, many low-SES parents read and talk to their children, encourage their involvement in extracurricular activities, and attend school events. Conversely, belonging to a high-SES family does not guarantee that a child will have enriching experiences and caring, involved parents. When you work with your students, be careful to avoid stereotypes and remember that your students are individuals and treat them as such. Keep your expectations appropriately high for all students.
