[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you are talking about schools that follow a Sudbury model. I’m not aware of any local progressives that do that. Kids are learning math facts. Kids are learning the scientific method. They learn how to read and write and analyze. They go onto to thrive at competitive high schools and colleges. If your child is in 2nd grade and you feel they aren’t learning how to learn, I’d ask if you’ve done any testing for learning disabilities. [/quote] I was just about to say this. What people are describing in this thread is a Sudbury school. There are no DC progressive schools that do this. A progressive school will incorporate more student choice than a so-called "traditional" school, but it's not "choice" in the sense that you can opt of out math. That's just ridiculous.[/quote]
