Basically, it all boils down to this... I saw that other folks feel it is up to the parents to enforce such quality education on their child/ren.. not the state, not the govt, or a group..
*nodding* in agreement! but here the states does the policy and all that -- i think its the parents that should be able to choose the best education there is for the kids regardless of the mandatory education that the county or state has set up aside from the mandatory hours of schooling which is 1080 hrs (if i remmy right) -- and that would include the choice of enrolling the kids into the phonics program or not -- i remmy i once asked my sister why not she take her son (my nephew) out of the phonics program when i saw how badly his spelling was and it being based on what he hears and she said she cant cuz its the county's policy and i told my sister its purely she seemed to agree but said she has NO say of the county to do that
