[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are zoned for a Greatschools 10/10 elementary school in the Langley pyramid. We have not talked to anyone about the schools yet as our kids are young. A neighbor of mine who has a DD in first grade was saying most of the teaching is on screens and the homework is on screens as well. She said it kind of matter-of-factly, not happily. That is not what I want for my child. Do we need to shell out a ton of money we don’t have for private?! Does it vary in other elementary schools.[/quote]

What do you mean?

Life and work revolves around screens. Screens are fabulous teaching tools.

Would you like to return to slate and chalk or something? Make them bang the erasers after school as discipline? Maybe bring back caning or other corporal punishment?[/quote]

DP.  See, it's idiotic posts like this which are cringeworthy.  Of course you have to be a dope and go to extremes.  The OP is simply saying she would like more emphasis on reading ACTUAL books and less emphasis on screen time.  And I'll add to that - bring back textbooks.[/quote]
