Spend Time Together

Want to know the single, biggest thing you can do to help your children achieve in school?

Spend time with them.

That's it. Just be with them. Proximity promotes conversation, and if you and your child are in the same room, sooner or later you will start talking. Get him or her talking and you will start to hear what they like and dislike about school, and then you can go to work.

It isn't hard; you just have to try.
