Thank goodness they do teach like the 80's. The touch point math and lack of phonics in the later years handicapped my older children's development. One of them is 25 years old and still can't do math without counting it out.

Rochester primary teaches math, reading, and writing using sound, time proven principles. My first grader gets an appropriate amount of homework.

My only regret is that Washington wastes so much money feeding and educating illegal aliens. Just imagine what we could do with the same amount of money devoted to educating legal resident aliens and US citizens.

I am disappointed in the quality of the education here. It is like watching the 80's! Ditto's and seat work. What happened to educational reform?
