[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I cannot afford to move out of the urban school my kid is in: I ideally would like to like in a suburb with good schools but I can’t afford it. Issues I’m running into include my kid getting good grades, but testing very poorly in math in spite of high grades. There are a lot of social and behavioral issues with the kids at my daughter’s school. A lot of the values amongst the other students don’t match the values i try to teach at home.[/quote] For math: use Khan Academy each summer. First review the last year’s math, then do the “ready for” class for the next year’s math. For behavior/values: join a church (or similar) whose values more closely align with your own. (Doesn’t have to be religious. I think a lot of families use sports for this one.) [/quote]
