[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Move your kid to a tech free school rn.  You will never get this time back.  Do your research and find a TECH FREE school.  Even the parochial Catholic schools won’t be good enough in this regard.  You have to be in an environment where everyone (parents and teachers) are ALL IN on reading, writing and arithmetic.  Waiting until you hope it gets better will undoubtedly end up with you disappointed and your little one uneducated.  [/quote]

There are zero tech-free schools where their students score high in math, reading, or science.   [/quote]

Like another PP said, Montessori schools, Waldorf schools, classical
Schools and some small, private Christian schools that are not in the tech arms race.  There are options but one has to do their homework.[/quote]

I know they have them but none of them are top rated schools.   There’s a tiny Waldorf school near us.   There’s no screens it’s more play based .   They don’t begin to  teach reading until about 7 years old.   They aren’t assigned specific reading until end of third grade.   Their math  is play based.  It works for some kids but I don’t see it being a better choice for  everyone.  The parents are kind of weird too.

By college all students will need laptops.  At that point they need to be completely tech savvy.  [/quote]
