> Just pointing out that spell check, per se matters not. Strange you were the only one who caught that fact.

> My main concern is the 'dumbing' down of our kids by a public school employees claiming they are overworked and underpaid. Not every student should finish public school in 12 years. Some require more time while others, less time.
>
> If, as others posted, spelling isn't necessary (due to advances in technology), then why teach it. The same should go for math (use calculators - quicker, accurate (with a working power source) and require less student and teacher effort) and/or reading (use audio books also requiring less student and teacher effort). From my observations (of K to 12 students,) we are creating an obese, lazy, gimme gimme gimme generation. And that my friends is sad, very sad.
