The thematic units used in elementary education make the material meaningful for the students to whom it is being presented. Before you come to conclusions regarding what is going on in school nowadays I wish you would take a trip to the Sherburne School and visit some of the classrooms to see some exciting and dynamic things happening. In addition to the regular education methods it is exciting to see how children with disabilities are now integrated into the regular classroom with modifications to their curriculum so that they can be taught in the least restrictive environment. We received excellent scores during the last State testing that was administered to our students. There is always room for improvement but please, lets not condemn without knowing what is going on right in your own town.
Education requires radical reform.
