Still, if a FAMILY does not VALUE education or deem it as important, teaching kids 12 hours a day means NOTHING. It will only cause (more) teacher frustration and low teacher efficacy, IMO.

You're right, it was about an 8.5 hour day. So, it wasn't much longer than normal. We did have before school and after school activities occassionally, but so does every other school.
What made our school work probably was the strong family commitment. I don't know how parents today can stand to spend so little time getting involved with the education of their children. It's really discouraging about the state of this young generation if they don't value education and aren't encouraged to from their parents.
