[quote=Anonymous]We're now in a highly regarded DCPS preschool and I was rather surprised to observe our child's teacher (who has a bachelor's degree) uses a lot of incorrect grammar, around the parents and kids. We dealt with this issue while in daycare, but I knew there was only so much you could expect from daycare teachers with limited education levels, and I wasn't as concerned when my child was younger. I thought formal preschool would be different. Are my expectations too high for public school? Is it different in other DC public schools? In the 'burbs? Presumably you don't have this issue in private schools (although please warn me if you do, because I wouldn't want to pay private tuition for that!). Trying to get some perspective here. Teachers in my mediocre public school 30 years ago were grammar maniacs, and I just sort of expected it to be that way all over. (And was hoping to de-program some of my preschooler's daycare-acquired grammar). Thanks. [/quote]
