[quote=Anonymous]DS's independent school in NWDC provides better -education- (not 'service,' wtf?) than our assigned school. Empirical evidence: the curriculum is balanced among subjects that are important for civilized societies and not skewed in favor of the two topics hit heavy on the PARCC. Empirical evidence: child spends more time immersed in critical thinking across platforms than kids at IB NWDC DCPS. As evidenced by the daily schedule and the percentage of time devoted to projects reliant on critical thinking vs. rote memorization, regurgitation and rubrics. Subjective evidence: kids love school, look forward to school. Subjective evidence: kids are better spoken and have more poise and presence than neighbor kids due to advanced opportunities during school day for public speaking, debate, and prolonged engagement with faculty unrelated to topic mastery.[/quote]
