[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every single student who is doing well at school, is doing so because there is enrichment at home. It could be a parent teaching, Kumon, a tutor, other enrichment opportunities - trips to museum, exposed to parents occupation, camps, trips, vacations, etc. Even if you are subscribing to magazines for kids or taking them to the zoo - it is enrichment. Those who do not have the time or the expertise - hire tutors. I do not believe that MCPS is doing a poor job as compared to other school districts, but I do believe that having highly educated parents, high HHI and high SES, a large number if expats in this area, has resulted in more academic enrichment/imtervention in this area.[/quote] But what is MCPS doing for the kids whose parents can't help with this? It should be the schools' job to make up in school the enrichment, tutoring or whatever may not be happening at home because parents have to work or don't have the resources to provide them. At least that's what I would expect from the great Montgomery County Public Schools.[/quote]
