Last week, Diane Ravitch PhD and former Assistant Secretary of Education had this advice for parents concerned about their students education:
“I think what parents need to do is to go to their schools and say, ‘You know what really matters to me is that my child has adequate time for the arts. I want my child to come to school, not to be tested, but to play an instrument, to sing in a chorus, to join a band, to paint, to do sculpture, to learn to use the computer to do creative things.’ I think that parents should insist upon all the activities in school that lead to healthy and happy and fulfilled children.”
