They also have a right to homeschool.

The government is running a system of price-fixed monopoly schools. When private schools are scarce due to the hostile business climate created by the price-fixed government schools, government threatens parents with armed police, court, and foster care action if they don't send their child to local government school indoctrination camp.

Also....since government schools have the power of armed police to collect taxes. When high taxes burden parents and both are forced into the work place, the government threatens parents with police, court, and foster care if the government schools are not used.

Geeze! Some "choice". Government school attendance or armed police.

By the way,,,,MORE than $10,833 per government schooled K-12 child every year. ( federal, state, and local combined). There are NO private schools in my city that cost this much,,,not even the most exclusive. More is spent on government K-12 education in this nation than on the military.

Look, you're a one-trick pony. The schools aren't going away anytime soon, so while they are here, a curriculum needs to be formed. And in science class, science should be taught, not creationism/ID. Period. Don't like it? Homeschool.
