[quote=Anonymous]Longfellow parent here. I have no problem with the content of modern books that promote diverse viewpoints or experiences. But I DO have a problem with the quality of reading that’s expected of kids. My kid is in AAP, and has NO specific required teading. She can choose from lists, and virtually everything is way way below grade level. Look up the lexile level recommended for 7th-8th graders, then look up the Lexile of each of the books on the list. Middle school kids in FCPS are being given virtually no recommendations or options for books that will build and stretch their reading skills. The books are all at 3rd-6th grade reading level. This, I think, is worth calling the schools out on.[/quote]
