The National Center for Education Statistics, the primary federal organization for education research, has released its annual "The Condition of Education 2010" report. This year, the report includes a special section on high-poverty schools, and further illustrates linkages between high poverty and poor performance in school. 

A snapshot of the report's conclusions can be found here, and the report is available in its entirety here.
