Has this seriously happened? I thou...What the bunk? Has this seriously happened? I thought it was bad enough that schools in my home-state had decided that teaching children cursive writing was no longer worth it (computer generations and all), but this is deplorable! <br /><br />Librarians run small little worlds that would otherwise collapse without them! Children need those small little worlds!<br /><br />It's already unfortunate that here our students and teachers are forced through grueling preparations for standardized tests that don't even properly measure learning (No child left-behind mess). The Arts are ignored, skipped for funding almost every single time because they're apparently not deemed important enough to the intellectual development of children. <br /><br />Now suddenly there's no need for librarians?!<br /><br />I'm in school to become licensed to teach French at Secondary level. I wonder sometimes if they'll even cut foreign languages eventually. For some reason I have this sneaking suspicion that when it comes to my own children I'll end up home-schooling.Auggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16487538965092147995noreply@blogger.com
