When you say people should be school-ready, what I'm hearing from people in schools is that people are arriving at school without being able to read on any level, and many parents not communicating with children as they potentially would have, because of new technology. It does help, in many instances, with reading, but often it militates against their development. What are you doing to try and encourage parents, through various schemes, to interact with their children before they get to school, so that they can be school-ready, as you describe?
