    A. True

    Explanation:

    Alexander states that, all things being equal, students start off more or less around the same level, when different income brackets are considered, through the school year. The problem here comes with the summer vacation, which might last 3 months. While those of a lower socio-economic background might remain home and not get out much, the more affluent ones have time and resources to build on extra curriculars as well as partake in tutoring, or similar academic enhancers.
