[quote=Anonymous]Couldn't agree more. We stuck with one of the schools this thread from PreS3 to 5th grade for 2 kids (end of the road this year). All the supplementing required to ensure that our kids were challenged and could write a grammatic paragraph or two by 5th grade got to us over the years. Writing instruction was by far the weakest link - not nearly enough practice, hardly any grammar taught, and hardly any correcting of work on the part of teachers. The math instruction was adequate, but no push, and regular denials that one of our kids was ready for tougher math. A 5th grade teacher scolded us for teaching him "too much math" for the school to know what to do with him. At least the school was a happy and safe place for the kids, with an excellent librarian.[/quote]
