Well, if you go by test schools, Carroll County has some of the best schools in the state. My experience with the schools (I live in the northwest part of the county) is that people are welcome to come in and look around. More people should do this. I was told by one local home-schooling advocate that she wouldn't send her kids to the local schools since "they don't teach phonics." I was surprised to hear it, since I heard phonics being taught in every elementary class I helped out in. Last night I helped my 14 y.o. son learn a soliquy from MacBeth, which has to be memorized by Tuesday. I don't remember my high school being this tough and demanding. Granted, the schools aren't perfect, but I am happy with the education my older son is getting at FSK and my younger son is getting at Runnymede.--Eva Whitley Eva Whitley (ECWhitley@AOL.COM)
