Abstract
The purpose of this quantitative study is to measure educators’ beliefs of the characteristics of poverty using the Daniel C. Fritz Perception Model. The researcher looked at perceptions/beliefs, which were common issues of poverty within the district according to educators’ years of experiences; then measure their perception strengths and beliefs based off the 4-point Likert Scale. Statistical significance examined by the researcher showed which issues were most relevant according to those perceptions between those groups concerning the experience in education. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software was used to compile data and run a statistical analysis.
