[quote=Anonymous]Back in the day, which was a few years ago now, at our elementary some parents got together and offered a geography class. Kids memorized the states, and at the end of a few months there was a geography bee with prizes. DC aged out of that school, but they were planning to do countries/rivers/oceans the following year. As I recall, the geography package was given to any interested kid, and kids had to do it on their own time. Not completely ideal, but it didn't take time out of the school day (which was key for winning school support), and at least kids who couldn't stay after school weren't disadvantaged either. The school administration supported it enthusiastically. They let us use the copy machines and a few of us parents put the geog packets together.[/quote]
