[quote=Anonymous][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] Why not just homeschool? Or send your kid to private school? Why complain about PUBLIC SCHOOL that is designed to meet the needs of everyone? Just homeschool where you can teach what you want, when you want. Problem solved. [/quote] DP but wow, you're a HUGE part of the problem with DCPS schools. Newsflash: all neighboring districts are better in every single way. I never thought I'd say I miss MCPS parents, but I do now. They FIGHT for their children and their education. This thread has just shown me what I've seen teaching in DCPS- apathetic parents which is why student behaviors are terrible and why student achievement is abysmal at best. If your response to legitimate problems is, homeschool or private, you have no real solutions. Public school children deserve the best and meeting the needs of all students includes providing elementary students with more than just reading and math. Do some work on yourself before posting here. [/quote]
