The goal of school is to prepare children to succeed in their academic, professional, and personal goals. Your grandchild doesn’t have to be the smartest child in the class to be successful in school; they just need to learn and grow. School success requires good study skills and habits, self-confidence, and the ability to make friends.

Here are some basic ideas for supporting your grandchildren in school.
