[quote=Anonymous]We deferred on applying to several local highly-regarded private schools once we saw no evidence of any phonics, saw multiple classroom whiteboards explicitly teaching 3-cueing (which never works), and the whole pile of Fountas & Pinnell reading books. We might apply to one of those schools at 8th or 9th, but we did not want our follows-teacher-instructions daughter to be de-railed by an awful reading and writing curriculum in K or 1st or 2nd grade. It is so needless and so sad. So many kids have been harmed by bad curricula and correspondingly bad teaching.[/quote]
