What a great reply! :-)

My response to her was: “In earlier years, yes, it is appropriate to study grammar and writing properly. By ninth grade, those skills should be in a good place – meaning it’s time to develop them and hone them in different contexts. But, in high school, studying literature is about studying the human condition. The only way humans can make progress is to study literature and history, to understand our past to work toward a better future. As students are discovering interdependence, it is a perfect time to address their critical role in society.”
