I wouldn’t have hesitated to call the school.

I teach English at a private school (where we have standards) and have written a book, so my skills are pretty good. Those errors jumped out at me.

You're right, I should have called the school and kicked some ass. My wife was afraid that if I said anything, he'd single out my daughter, a straight A student, and give her a hard time.

I feel passionate about English Grammar. My kids take Essentials of the English Language with Classical Conversations. As a parent in the Foundations and Essentials programs, I've refreshed my own knowledge of English Grammar tremendously.

For proofreading exercises last year, we had to go no further than the local 5th-grade teacher's website, which had a dozen spelling, punctuation, and grammar mistakes.

There's a book about this called War Against Grammar.
