If a kid doesn't know how to read before he gets to school, he's behind the eight-ball.
Amazing how things have changed. I had some very crude reading ability when I went into kindergarten and was pretty good at it by the time I got out of kindergarten. And I was *way* ahead of my peers and continue to be to this day.

When I went to K (1968), kids knew their colors, letters and numbers, but that was about it. I think the standards have changed, but the methods don't meet the standards.
