Schools in higher income neighborhoods have significantly more resources - they can afford focused coaching, increased one-on-one intervention etc.
Yes, not every kid coming in is going to change, but even if you're able to change the course of 10% of those kids, that's 10% fewer potential future parents with the same problems as the previous generation, and then perhaps 10% more in the generation after that.
Such social re-engineering can never work without the primary responsibility being placed only where it belongs - with the parents.
