Learning is not a race thing, or a genetic thing, it’s a cultural thing!
The one proven factor that helps children do well in school is PARENT INVOLVEMENT!!
Parents need to set the culture of “learning as important and valuable.”
This is done by parents:
* asking about and helping with homework,
* ensuring that it is done each night,
* by attending school events and being proud of their child
* by setting standards and expectations for their child.

Parents are the models their children look to and follow.
