[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It is infuriating when you think about it. I can’t understand why many school systems (it’s not just FCPS) are punting on making sure kids have basic skills needed for later success. Like they’re so obsessed with kids being “21st century problem solvers” that they skip right to projects without making sure there’s foundational knowledge first. [/quote] Rejoice! I got an e-mail from an FCPS school board representative trumpeting the new superintendent: "She is brilliant, insightful, with a vision for providing a 22nd century education for all of our students", so the kids will presumably be getting a thorough grounding in agriculture, marksmanship, small unit tactics, water purification, etc.[/quote]
