> reading competency starts at home, not in the classroom.

You are correct. Those students that read with their parents and learn at home have a significant advantage.

Our education system however should do everything that it can to help those children that didn't have this advantage to catch up. I've read research in the past that shows good schools to bring those kids up to the same level, evidently reading the comments here it seems the US school system has significant issues.
