>The single biggest indicator of future student success is how many of the parents at the school are married with only one working parent. I.e the parents with the most free time to help their kids. Or - just for the record - it depends on the kind of job the parents have, nowadays it is more rare, but to give you a single datapoint, I was raised by my both working parents, but both were artisans, they had an independent (each their own) laboratory/atelier, so, bar the time I was at school, most of the time I spent with the one or the other on their workplace, even if they were working they were right there, ready to assist in case of issues with homework or only to answer the odd question/doubt. Besides the help they gave me with school, I learned a lot from them by simply being with them, including dedication to work. I am forever grateful to my parents for the patience and dedication thay had for me. There is a big difference when compared to two working parents (with a job as employee) as they cannot - even if they would want to - spend much time with their sons but also (I know a couple of examples) families where only one of the parents is working but the other one is nonetheless not interested in the kids' education, in the belief that the school should supply everything related to education.
