[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP.  Maybe your concerns at your child's school are legitimate even if they aren't at my child's school, however your title asks a question but your opening statement already gives an opinion. Sure, many people have gripes that are very legitimate, but yours goes beyond that to say that the entire K-2 program is the pits. Also, if you stay on this board you will realize that there are K parents after Kparents writing about how easy K is for their snowflakes. I have yet to see anywhere near the number of people write back to say they have the same feelings in 1st and 2nd grade. If anything they're starting to write about how there's too much homework by then or no enough recess. So, if you are one of those K parents just dissatisfied with K and then extrapolating that the rest of the school until AAP or whatever magnet is available starts is going to be too easy peasy, I think you need to take a broader look and let your judgements evolve as time goes by. It's much easier to work with any government agency if you're targeting one thing specifically than if you write and say that all of K-2 public is a joke.[/quote]

Not OP, but I have a lot of parents in my neighborhood that feel the same way as OP.  I'm glad there are a lot of people here that are having different experiences.  That, however, does diminish OP' s experience.  Not every school or every teacher is stellar.  Also, depending on other issues in some schools, concerns like OP' s may be more wide spread.  OP, in case you didn't know, people on DCUM are very concerned with touting how fabulous FCPS and APS school are so you committed a major mistake by questioning that.  I have friends who have had wonderful experiences and those that haven't.  You aren't going to get open-minded responses on this board.  Everyone is too vested in maintaining the superior aura of FCPS and APS schools.  Good luck with resolving your concerns.[/quote]
