> The challenge for large and heterogeneously diverse nations like the U.S. is to offer an educational system that provides access to quality education regardless of parental involvement.

But don’t your stats show that we already do?

We “provide access” to everyone. Otherwise it wouldn’t matter how much the parents pushed the children.

If your argument is that the system should push the children harder, how do you propose that? Give less hard working kids lower grades? I think we’ve tried that and decided it’s unfair.
