10.28.19 | Wall Street Journal | About 29% of New York City’s homeless children passed state tests in reading last spring, compared with 49% of other city students, according to the nonprofit’s analysis. It said similar disparities persisted in math, and only 57% of homeless students graduated high school.

Kim Sweet, executive director of Advocates for Children, said the number of city students who experienced homelessness last year could fill the Barclays Center, a Brooklyn sports arena, six times.
