Abstract

The article discusses a report from the Educational Testing Service (ETS) titled "The Family: America's Smallest School." The report outlines several social factors that exist outside of the school environment and weigh heavily on a child's achievement on standardized tests. The factors discussed include residence with one or two parents, reading with adults, and time spent watching television.
