[quote=Anonymous][quote]You might need to read some articles about why grammar is is a function of an oppressive society. Is this why ACPS doesn't teach grammar? Assuming people are unintelligent or unprofessional because they use AAVE, which is a dialect that has defined speech patterns and its own grammar, and not standardized WHITE English is racist. It is. I completely agree. But I don't think the solution is not to teach any grammar or a standard curriculum. I'll beg off now, bc I don't want to derail the thread.[/quote] I had two children at Maury (currently had one) and Mr. Powell's grammar was just fine. I did not find him to be an unprofessional or bad person, just not a very dynamic one. I had one mildly unplesant interaction with him in relation to my child's IEP, but it all worked out fine in the end. He was an ok principal, but I am sure that his replacement will be as well.[/quote]
