Monkey School

My daughter informs me that her stuffed monkey, Monkey, attends Monkey School.

In Monkey School, she said, instead of being in a grade, when the monkeys know the material, they graduate up to the next level.

Apparently, Monkey School differs from a typical K-8 school in that the default assumption isn't that students will spend a year in a grade; instead, units are smaller and students are constantly moving up, as if in a video game.

I like it.
