[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm confused - what is this "PS" you're referring to? Public school or preschool? And why are you preemptively complaining about elementary schools when your kids are not yet elementary aged? I have 2 kids in MCPS (elementary and middle school) and neither one came into K reading and writing, nor did anyone expect that. And yet my second grader is now writing short essays that have a more coherent structure than some of the grad students I teach. And my 7th grader is learning Chinese and his course descriptions are way beyond anything I did in HS AP classes a billion years ago. My kids are not advanced or gifted, and they don't love school. But they have had great teachers and have made diverse sets of friends. Please OP, find something else to fill your time. There are good things and bad things about all our area public school systems, but there is really no point in a vague, uninformed rant.[/quote]
