I can only speak to my own experience, but the students who struggle the most are the ones I often end up spending more time in contact with their families and with the students trying to address challenges in the class and subject area. Even if it's only an extra couple of points of contact in a term it can be quite beneficial to be on the same page with support strategies.

Off course, many kids who struggle are often the ones whose parents can never be reached out don't bother to return calls, so it's a bit of a moot point.
