wish to give a child every advantage he'll need to successfully make his way in the classroom. But what's the best way to help?We asked seven families for suggestions. Some parents we interviewed resolved to change the classroom culture to reflect academic priorities. Others decided to set an example within their own homes. In all cases, the ideas worked because they weren't hard for parent or child to act on and the solution fit.
These seven families were determined to improve their child's school life. Their answers may not be yours, but we present them to suggest that if there's something about your child's academic performance or school that you'd like to change, you probably can. Read their seven success stories for helpful tips and further resources.
