[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After reading this I'm convinced the best way to close the achievement gap isn't through educational reform but by requiring parenting classes for parents of low performing students.[/quote] What would you "teach" those parents? Lesson 1) Be born in the United States as a native English speaker Lesson 2) Have more money Lesson 3) Have more time Lesson 4) ...........?[/quote] Seriously. How you could possibly come to that conclusion from these posts is beyond me. [/quote] Maybe the poster was thinking of the model of the Harlem Children's Zone, which includes wrap-around services and parenting classes that start when parents are first expecting. I think they've had some success, but it's expensive, and they have private donors. And this model shouldn't be mandatory, but perhaps incentivized. https://hcz.org/[/quote]
