[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]we have a had a lot of DCPS interns in our office, I would say most of the HS kids write on a 3rd or 4th grade level. Its shameful and worse how celebratory every one is as the graduation rates. (or that lame Ballou stunt -Every kid accepted to college!!). a lot of functionally illiterate. Any for profit college will take and their student loans. [/quote] I think you mean: We have had a lot of DCPS interns in our office. I would say most of the HS kids write on a 3rd or 4th grade level. It's shameful. Worse is how celebratory everyone is about the graduation rates (or that lame Ballou stunt: every kid accepted to college) when a lot of graduates are functionally illiterate. Any for-profit college will take these students and their student loans. Writing is hard to teach, even for good writers. And most teachers are not good writers.[/quote]
