Need one read any further than the quote from Sophia Bennett Holmes, 12, an aspiring singer-actress-fashion designer?
If you do, I think the last paragraph tells you all you need to know:
“I feel like they’re definitely going to have a hard time with college, where you have to sort of do that sitting down and shutting up thing,” said Victoria Rothman, 17, a public school refugee who now spends much of her school day studying music. “There are kids who sit here and play video games all day. I’d put a limit to that or ban it.”
Sure, some flexibility in curriculum and instruction is good, but a free-for-all? Probably not.
