I see it now, all the way down at number 5! Everything they said about my generation was true. :)
Here's an amusing coincidence. I was a student at JJ Hill Elementary school in St. Paul, MN in the late 80s. This was the gifted/talented magnet back then, I don't know if it still is. I see you're affiliated with Minnesota's gifted/talented educational program. Can I somehow blame you for my inability to read all the way to the fifth definition? :)
The Gifted and Talented magnet school in St. Paul now has the name Capitol Hill. I don't know if that is a successor school to the one you remember.
In general, I'm not sure how schools have been teaching reading in specific places in the relevant generations, but I would agree with the critics who say that reading could have been better taught than it usually was in school over the last few generations.
