Each school should follow guidelines that the school districts sets, however schools should have freedom within those lines to do what is the best for their students. Individual schools will have the best knowledge and information about how to help their students, and should be able to curtail their curriculum to match their student’s needs.
Unfortunately, the charter school that I volunteer at has recently made decisions that are not in the best interest of their students. By canceling their bilingual program the school has lost quite a number of their students. The school originally designed a curriculum that would give their students a very valuable quality, and parents recognized that and chose the school specifically. When schools are given the opportunity to create their own curriculum parents can attempt to find the best school to meet their child’s needs.
