[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear OP, if you are getting worked up about this & your child is starting elementary school, you will have a stroke by 12th grade. Trust the process & supplement at home as needed. It will be alright.[/quote]

My kid is going into 4th grade. We're new to the area. They've had science and social studies thus far. I have every reason to be upset. Why should I trust the process when I know they could be getting better living elsewhere? It seems most of you are just accepting of this subpar status quo and that's concerning. [/quote]

Let's start with the fact that the teacher's union is a very powerful union that demand teachers have extended planning periods to train and prepare lessons.
This leaves less time for teaching and Math and English Language Arts will always stay in front. Unfortunately, Science and Social Studies may get moved around. a bit. It's not the end of the world in the lower grades. 
Supplement, you will be fine.[/quote]
