1) What can students do to close the achievement gap?
I think students should go to pre-school to prepare for elementry school. Also they should get the best out of elemntry and middle school to do good in high school. I also think that students should spend more time doing homework and studing and less time watching t.v. if they know that they are failing a class. Students should close the gap by puting attention in class and doing homework.Also students could close the gap by not fooling around in there classes.

2) What can parents do to close the gap?
Parents could check the students homework daily. Also they could make sure that students are spending more time in studing than watching t.v. A other way that parents could close the gap is by not leading them get F and D in none of their clases. Also parents could voleter.in the students schools.

3)What can teachers do to close the gap?
Teachers could help their students by not giving up on them. Also they could help close the gap by not making low expectation for their students even thow they do not do the homework regulary. A other way is by making sure that they dont full around in their class.
