[quote=Anonymous]Home for sure. We're at an ES with a high FARMS rate/high ESOL population, and I volunteer quite a bit at the school. ALL of the kids are smart and inquisitive and come to school wanting to learn. We have fantastic teachers. But, unfortunately, some kids just have way too many challenges to overcome. And, you can see the changes as they kids get into upper elementary. The kids who get support at home do their homework, get their projects in on time, have involved parents, etc. just do better. I don't really think they're 'smarter'. They are just more ready/able to learn because of all the support their receive at home. [/quote]
