Perhaps you should be handing this information out to parents who aren't involved enough with their kids to help them develop good study habits. If you have a failing school, chances are extremely good that the surrounding community is poor, uneducated and does little more than give lip-service to the idea of education being important. There's usually also a high degree of one-parent homes, alcohol and/or drug abuse and violent crime.

Education has to start with behavior and behavior starts in the home.
