[quote=Anonymous]My 7th grader had to read 4 books over summer - 3 of her own choosing with one that she wouldn't know be part if the first assignment this fall. There's also 6 books to read over this 7th grade. My 8th grader read Fahrenheit 451 which is not an easy one to read. He has dyslexia and ADHD to boot! We go to a private school regarded as good but not academically strong rated top 20 in VA. It's not a pressure cooker and I feel like it's prob avg in terms of difficulty comparable for public but now I realize it must be way above them! I don't understand how you can go to Columbia not knowing how to read. I don't understand why public school sucks as much as it does. [/quote]
