[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid watched a movie, which is fine with me. Half the class was absent.

You do realize that they really don't learn much at mcps on a good day, right? I have to supplement at home...which is annoying. I went to private school and my parents never had to teach me at home. Our classes were larger too.[/quote]
Well, I went to a public school in New Jersey and in third/ fourth grade I was learning math that kids in mcps don't see until sixth grade. The curriculum boast "higher level thinking" well from what I've seen  most of them can't think their way out a of paper bag. My parent didn't help, but they did take me to the public library EVERY DAY after school instead of plopping me in front of a t.v. to "do" my homework. I learned so much reading for hours everyday on my own that I could have homeschooled myself. I'm not exaggerating. [/quote]

Funny I went to public school in CT suburb of NYC.  I am amazed at how much algebra the kids do in elementary school.  I don't think I saw and 'x' till 8th grade and I was in the top math class.  Are you following your parents example since it worked so well for you? [/quote]
