[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have pretty bright 5th and 3rd graders who attend a Catholic k-8 in alexandria. Neither can articulate what they actually do or learn in their art and music classes — beyond watching videos and drawing pictures.

I suspect that these classes are a total waste of time and aren’t much more than glorified daycare-level activities.

Is this the case at public schools too? I remember actually learning a fair amount in there classes in my public elementary school. [/quote]

It's very hard to get into the school that your kids go to, and you obviously seem to hate everything about it. Why not send your kids to public school and free up two spaces for parish members who weren't able to get slots for their kids?[/quote]

Do certain schools have like a full time staff member monitoring DCUM and running interference for any perceived criticism or questioning of the school? It’s hilarious how certain comments like this pop up within 3 minutes of certain posts. [/quote]

You seem to have a lot of free time. Have you thought about applying to that extended day job or volunteering to publish the directory?[/quote]

I might apply for the DCUM School Sycophant position that I heard might be opening up. Are you leaving? [/quote]

Look, nobody is saying that you have to like the art and music program, the policies with regard to the publication of the third trimester honor roll, the condition of the music room, the fundraising efforts, the timing of the publication of the directory, and the success of the sportsball team. It just seems odd that you seem to hate everything about this school, yet continue to send your children there. If I hated my kids' school that much I'd send them somewhere else. [/quote]
