[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But you do need to pick your private school carefully; there are quite a few out there with similar drawbacks -- even now, you'll find quite a few allegedly elite, ultra expensive schools with beautiful campuses embracing Lucy Caulkins's execrable reading and writing programs. [/quote] +1000. At least APS, FCPS, and all other Virginia publics are required by a bi-partisan VA law to eliminate the Lucy Calkins reading approach over the next 2-3 years. APS got in front of this issue beforehand, but only after NAACP threatened to sue over their (previous) ineffective reading curriculum, and I am very grateful to NAACP for that pressure on APS.
