[quote=Anonymous][quote]There are plenty of resources at Title 1 schools, but if the kids and parents aren't going to develop an interest in academics, it doesn't really matter what resources are available. [/quote] Title I schools are doing well to get the kids to come to school. Communicating with the parents and getting them in to school is a whole other project. The parents frequently don't want to come to the school. And, frankly, most of the problems start well before the kids come. The kids who do well in Title I are generally those whose parents do support them. Listen to Dr. Ben Carson. His mother could not even read, he says. But, she understood its importance and insisted that her kids do well in school. That is what makes the difference.[/quote]
