Arthuro is from a poor family and he has great difficulty in learning English. But last year he made much progress and finally got his name on the honor list. He is not alone. Over 500 children in one of the poorest school districts（学区） in Texas are succeeding too. How did this happen？
When Marie Elementary School was set up three years ago, school head Catharine Correa visited the poor families in the school district. She asked a simple question: “What can your school do for you?” Then she dealt with those needs.
To help students from these families catch up with missed classes, the school was opened on Saturdays. Teachers’ timetables were changed and the school day was made longer.
Correa also found volunteers（志愿者）to help. They read to students and kept them practicing English. Teachers took on more work. Every teacher was required to direct a theater or music production each year to get children into the performance. The school started “Program S” to give more attention to children at risk（风险）of failing.
Not everything came easily, It was hard at first. Teachers were worried that they wouldn't be able to do it all. But “they are good teachers, and they trust that we are doing the right thing for the children,” Correa says.
Now over 90% of the children in the district go to Marie Elementary School. Students are scoring higher on state exams. “It doesn't matter if you have the richest school or the poorest,” Correa says “It's what you do with what you've got.”
Whom did “Program S” aim to help?
A. The parents who loved actin
B. The volunteers who were poor.
C. The teachers who were worrie
D. The children who might fail in their study.
