[quote=Anonymous]This is interesting discussion, I did not know so many people disliked the program, I wish there were some more analysis on what it costs and saves each school to be able to use Fillmore so as to inform a debate re what can be done to offer all schools a wide range of creative instruction. I have always been a bit skeptical of the program, especially because the products that my son brings home, from a PK class, does not seem to warrant a bus trip (which I heard cost $600). But he also does dance class which his school has absolutely no space for. They probably don't have space to store a decent range of art supplies either. So for this the Fillmore program is valuable for small schools. But I agree, the Fillmore model may not be the most cost efficient overall, it would be nice if DCPS would release some sort of study if they have done one. And present their plan for not letting creative expression die as they pursue higher math and reading scores. [/quote]
