"Seventy-one South Carolina high school seniors in this year’s graduating class have gone to school through their entire academic careers without missing a single day," according to the South Carolina Department of Education. How did they do that? I spoke with two of them yesterday who told me their parents encouraged them. They were clearly encouraged and not forced. I'm always impressed with parenting styles in which parents; somewhat laid back style produces amazing results. I would like to hear about how you have "encouraged" your children to do things with successful results. Congrats to you perfect attendees and you parents! It's truly a partnership to be proud of.
