[quote=Anonymous]I am assuming that admin, some teachers, at least SOME people in a given school boundary would know that reading strategies such as cueing have been debunked. It’s been decades and with national news covering it, it seems like there would at least be an awareness on some level. So why do schools keep this curriculum? The schools I am talking about have enough money to switch. I am frustrated as a parent who, on top of paying a lot for my house in a “top school district” and a ton of property taxes, is now looking at paying tens of thousands per year to send my kid to independent school to learn what I consider to be basics - reading, spelling, grammar.
