In fact, parents are their children's first teachers. Our kids learn by example. What we say and do matters to them today and in the future. Each child is unique and has special abilities. Parents need to have high expectations for all their children. Respect for school begins at home. The National Association for College Admissions Counselors (NACAC) has created the Parent Support Ladder and Home is a Learning Center to help you teach your kids.

You can teach your kids about education after high school even if you never went to college. No One In My Family Ever Went to College is a good place to begin. Think College Early has the resources you need to help you help your kids build a future that includes education.
