I'm talking 3rd grade on up is the answer to what age group. A very wise man told me once, you don't have to step in manure to know what it is. While we are at it another reader the 3rd graders have been read to   from their teacher is out of Grimm's Fairy Tales. This story is about a father who kills his son boils him up and eats him. The teacher had the audacity to say to the children ,don't go home and have bad dreams tonight. What in the world are these supposed educators thinking. I ask again ,what is wrong with building up the spiritual side of these kids with catholic literature about the saints etc. Thats how they will be able to fight temptations out in the world. What the academy is doing is promoting near occasions of sin by pushing Flannery  and this grimms fairy tale garbage. It truly is GRIM. When I was coming up in catholic grade school and high school we weren't bombarded with the kind of garbage the kids at st. marys are getting. More and more the academy is going the way of secularism in their literature breaking down these young souls using incrementalism. Its sad to see how the Society has slowly acquieced these last 14 or more years not only in their school but in the leadership.
