Yes there is. How much class time will be used to memorize a 3 stanza poem? Way more than you think. It is a waste of time.[/quote]

What do you want to bet that Georgia and Arkansas have *gasp* homework?  Do you really think students are memorizing their poems during class time?

Of course Fairfax students cannot possibly memorize anything.  They cannot spare the time...[/quote]

This is why anyone who can leave FCPS should.  Gatehouse doesn’t get it and the parents that elect the rubber stamp school board don’t get it.

FCPS moves from educational fad to educational fad trying hard to close the gap by bringing the brightest students down.  [/quote]

As a former FCPS student (1980s), I'm appalled at how far this school system has sunk.  I'm very grateful for the education I received, but whatever my kids are currently getting bears no resemblance to what was once taught.[/quote]
