[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yes, I do have an opinion about what my kids should be taught as an involved parent. [b]Other local schools have weekly spelling tests and work on handwriting. [/b]They all have a basic MCPS curriculum but what they do with it varies by school teacher. Our experience is that they are far weaker than other MCPS schools and like others said, you have to wonder about a closed school that doesn't allow parent involvement and there is absolutely no communication from teachers (other schools send home a weekly summary, for example). You clearly haven't been there to see the admin screaming at staff or as a parent have been screamed at. Most of the kids who are successful are either very smart or are heavily supplemented at home. [/quote] According to DCUM, that's not true. My kids' ES did have weekly spelling tests and some handwriting work, but that was 5+ years ago. My opinion on weekly spelling tests is that they're a waste of time.[/quote]
