[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had one go through MCPS and another MCPS to Catholic HS. Neither read Diary of Anne Frank, To Kill A Mockingbird, Gatsby or really any of the classics and it makes me incensed. [/quote] Same. I actually am not believing the posters (probably a sock poppet/troll) that is insisting their public school kids read or are reading numerous classics. My kids have been in a couple different districts in different states and I’ve talked to friends about this as well. Public schools are not doing classics beyond a required Shakespeare and a couple period books required by curriculum in high school.[/quote] Why would someone lie about this? I'm one of the PPs whose kid has read a ton of classics (she's in her school's IB program). I'm very much telling the truth about what she's read. It certainly depends upon class rigor, though.
