An interesting piece of research has been published by ETS; "The Family: America's Smallest School." "The focus of the publication describes a number of family characteristics and home conditions that influence children's cognitive development and school performance."
Three of these factors lack controversy and have been shown to work together to impact student learning. Each is within our control. We can make sure that...
• every student goes to school each day and is ready to work.
• every younger person is read to each day.
• every student's TV viewing is regulated. Reduce time in front of the TV.
Our community collectively spends millions of dollars each year providing students with the best education available. Lets take a step beyond the financial contribution. We can improve education at NC by applying those three principles.
