[quote=Anonymous]What I find interesting is that at the high school level my child has a very similar experience to me who also attended the same high school in FCPS. There is less writing but more shorter and collaborative assignments. Perhaps all of the writing from the shorter assignments equals the larger ones but it's different. By high school I had written at least 10 3-5 page papers. I think my child has written one if that. However the rigor is similar with a little less writing and more creativity. Why don't the high school teachers get on the school system for having kids unprepared in this area is beyond me.[/quote]
