[I don’t care if your child is a genius, Huckster or low functioning. Any child benefits from extra attention.]

In your particular neck of the woods, how engaged are the parents, generally? Do they essentially leave their children’s academic development to the teachers? Or do they monitor their children’s development and make the necessary adjustments?

We are a small rural community.

What I see of the parenting here, skills that the parents have are passed down to the offspring; e.g. tapping trees and making maple syrup, running/repairing a tractor, cutting and chopping firewood, harvesting deer, bear, wild turkey and the butchering involved, milking cows and other animal husbandry.
