How does the United States ensure educational equity?

In terms of policy, the U.S. Department of Education regards "fairness" as one of the six strategic goals in the education strategic plan 20 14-20 18, which basically includes improving the educational opportunities of students who lack care, reducing discrimination, and preparing every student for success.

Today, the largest share of the education budget is mainly used for pre-school education to middle school, focusing on solving the needs of poor students, ethnic minority students and other disadvantaged students. To some extent, the development trend of this budget has bridged and alleviated the negative impact of the original education funding model on the issue of education equity.

Extended data:

For a long time, American higher education has formed a multi-channel financing system. On the whole, various funds allocated by governments at all levels, tuition fees borne by students and school service income are the three major sources of funds for colleges and universities. Although the proportion of these three total incomes in the total funds has declined slightly in recent years, they still dominate.

For example, in 2000, the proportion of these three incomes in all recurrent funds was as high as over 90% in public universities, while only over 80% in private universities. Among them, government appropriation is the largest source of funds for public universities, while tuition and fees income is the primary channel of funds for private universities.
