If a kid enters school w/ a readiness and willingness to learn, then he will learn otherwise, not. He has to be fed, clean, mannered, organized appropritely to his age, equipped w/ basic supplies and seen his parents reading and in general acting in a civilized manner.

It is the parents responsibility to nurture the kid so that he is prepared to accept what the schools can offer. Remember the kid is in school for only a small % of his life. A teacher is in a 1:30 situation for a few hours a day , the parents are 2:1/2/3/4/5 much better odds of being able to affect behavior and attitude
