"For the past 6 years this school has experimented with "wall to wall project based learning." Although my child does not attend this school I am concerned with EQUITY i that the school seems to not use textbooks much and you will need to ask this. It is a New Tech Network School and I think, and you will need to check, this school also does not assign much if any homework. You will need to compare using School Digger other schools in the local area. The Katherine R. Smith Elementary school in my opinion has been experimenting with project based learning. The concerns of this school have been brought forth to the school board for many years. I think the best thing for you to do is transfer your child away due to (if true) a radical pedagogy of working wall to wall project based learning which may not work. That will be for you to explore as a parent."
