No Wonder Parents Are Confused...

As you probably can guess, I read a lot of education blogs and
websites.  And there are always bandwagon discussions that every other education site
seems to jump onto (longer school day, uniforms, testing, etc.).  But today, I found two different articles that made me laugh:

First a USA Today article that discusses the need for more PE to combat obesity.

and an Edweek.org blog article discussing the need for a change to extracurriculars to focus on art and music rather than sports.

Is it any wonder parents are confused if the experts can't make up their minds?  Aside from my needing to find another hobby, what do you think?  Have a great weekend.
