[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haven't read the entire thread. But I found this interesting because I have two kids in DCC high schools with an abysmal lack of writing instruction and have wondered if it is better in the "W" schools. My kids have taken the top English and History classes - AP when available. The first time my kid had to write a paper - like go home, sit at his desk, and write a paper - was the end of junior year after the AP English exam. Had to write a 3 to 5 page paper and had no idea how to do it. All the writing his teachers have them do is timed, in class sample AP exam essays. It is pathetic.[/quote] Did you read the Bethesda Magazine article about MCPS? It shows the so called W schools aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.[/quote]
