[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know what else you can do for them. The county has already spent a lot of money and resources trying to help the lowest learners. But you can’t help somebody who doesn’t want to help themselves. What they need is strong family support, but the school schools help there? [/quote] Family support is key, but there are challenges (obviously). Some of our families exist at the bottom of Maslow's Hierarchy. They are just trying to survive. Some parents are working two jobs. Parents with low literacy themselves aren't able to help their students. Now with Homeland Security picking up people on street corners, I wonder if some families will choose to keep their students at home. [/quote]
