[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have they changed their reading amd writing curriculum?[/quote] Website for Congressional says they still using Readers Workshop & Writers Workshop in lower elementary. See the curriculum section of the web site, grade by grade, and read it. They seem to drop both RW and WW around 4th grade, according to the school’s website. While both of those methods now are widely discredited, both methods remain common at local privates and in Maryland public schools. Virginia has mandated Science of Reading at all public schools - a bipartisan law recently was passed on that. Virginia publics are transitioning. Arlington and Fairfax put Phonics-centered instruction in all elementaries starting in Fall 2022. Arlington also is using some Core Knowledge materials which makes it the stronger reading curriculum among local VA publics (note that Core Knowledge is not related to the “common core” curriculum).[/quote]
