I really shouldn't post this because I fear it sounds like bragging and maybe it is, but not in the let me rub it in your face, but more ... wow, thanks for all the examples of the horrors your kids are living through, because it really shows me how lucky we are to have found the school DD is going to.
All the kindergarten curriculum that everyone is talking about: cut and paste, color, learning ABCs and counting to 30, etc ... my DD did in her 3 yr old class, but all in Spanish so at least it was new to her. I'm not sure exactly what the curriculum is for kindergarten but it has to be somewhat intense if by 1st grade they are working on spelling words such as Baccalaureate and writing expressive stories equal to 3rd grade. Plus, still learning in Spanish for half the day and English for the rest.
DD was doing all of the Kindergarten curriculum except cutting things out by the time she was 18 months and even at 3 she would have been bored to sit there doing it over and over in English, so I can't imagine her being stuck with this in Kindergarten.
