[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our kid is at often-named competitive K-12. Although MS had a fair amount of writing, I would not say that it did a good job teaching grammar or disciplined writing. The fact that 9th grade English involved a lot of grammar instruction was eye-opening. On the other hand, the sophistication of the issues explored in the MS English classes was remarkable, but my view is that students should have the basics down cold first.[/quote] The problem is that they don't because elementary schools have stopped teaching the basics of English.[/quote]
