[quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of literature/writing competitions - Reflections is one and that is heavily promoted by MCPS. Scholastic competitions is another. A 1 minute Google search will give you dozens of writing competitions. MS has book club as an after school activity. HS have plenty of writing clubs. The public library has kid writing clubs. There are plenty of opportunities. Even math has to be enriched on one's own. I enriched my kids in both math and writing. The school system is not there to solely teach your kid - the school is there to help you teach your own kid. That is the difference right there - that difference in perspective between the families whose kids excels and those who don't. It is YOUR job as parents to raise and teach your kids - you enlist the school to help you with that endeavor, not to completely replace you. So much whining about other people not taking care of your own kid.[/quote]
