[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The biggest weakness we have found in APS is the English classes. Even in intensified English, my kid has only read one book as a freshman and it was Night, which is very short. They were supposed to read Romeo and Juliet but then the teacher gave up and just had them read a summary in modern English. I think the problem is that any student can self-select into intensified classes and with English it is easier to dumb down the class than it is with math. Is that worth $60K/year, hard to say but something I think it is.[/quote] Which high school was this? Not our experience at all. I would complain about this to APS.[/quote] Wakefield[/quote]
