I have to say I was really impressed with the teachers at the kids school today. Usually they take the bus but I decided to take them today so I could talk to their teachers about how they teach Columbus Day. I was super impressed! I talked to both teachers and explained that we teach the kids that Columbus did not discover American - the Native Americans were already here first......and if they taught otherwise and got an odd response from our children I wanted to make sure the teachers know where that response was coming from and that is what we teach.
After talking to both teachers - they shared our same thoughts - neither one of them would be schooling too much on Columbus day and they both did not agree in the Columbus Day Holiday......wow! This was great news and gave me more confidence in the teachers! Way to go teachers who are teaching it right!!
