Having had Experience with the NC school systems I can see your daughter's success. Down here in Alabama public schools are a disgrace. THe straw that broke the camel's back for me was a letter from my Son's 9th grade english teacher -- the letter had 4 grammer error's and 11 mispellings in 4 paragraphs from someonewho was TEACHING High School English.

It was not a pretty sight when I sent the Letter back with RED PEN correction's (along with a copy to the school prinicipal).

Anyone who dares to correct the teacher would have to pull their kid out from school after that. LOL

THe straw that broke the camel's back for me was a letter from my Son's [should not be capitalized] 9th grade english [should be capitalized] teacher -- the letter had 4 grammer [should be spelled 'grammar'] error's [no apostrophe - the word is plural, not possessive] and 11 mispellings in 4 paragraphs from someone who was TEACHING High School English.

It was not a pretty sight when I sent the Letter [should not be capitalized] back with RED PEN correction's [no apostrophe - the word is plural, not possessive] (along with a copy to the school prinicipal [spelling should be 'principal']).

They might have gotten a good laugh out of it.
