In Oakland, Calif., 23 black boys scored perfect scores on last year's state reading or math tests. Of the 23 whiz kids, 8-year-old Amir Ealy (pictured) is profiled by the Oakland Tribune.
Sobrante Park Elementary Principal Marco Franco attributes Amir's success to his family:
"Amir is just an all-around kid. Like I said, it starts with him and his family, so he comes to us ready and is always prepared in class."
Park Elementary has a wise principal.
For most successful children, a high level of support, consistency and love can be found in their homes, propelling them in to greatness.
