I’m helping to run a preschool right now, I don’t think it’s a matter of “early enough” - if there are family issues, if they’re feeding the kid crap, not helping them get enough sleep, sending the kid to school with crap food, there’s frequently not too much the school can do, even with very high ratio of highly dedicated staff per student.
The school can work on behavioral issues, but then they go away on break, and come back with big regressions.
We should stop blaming everything on the schools. There are ways to raise a kid that are conducive to behaving well in that environment, and there are ways that are not conducive to that.
But we can’t blame it all on the parents either, they seem to have a lot less slack than I think US parents have had historically.
