I'm not sure that this material is appropriate for K-12 levels, but it is a private school. If I lived in NC, I'd definitely be sending children elsewhere. Here's more on the school, at least from what I can tell:

If you see me posting anything with a leaning toward the south it's because of the disarmament issue. I blame the institution of slavery on the same type of thinking that gets us today's illegal immigration. America's elite has always had a glint of evil in its eye. Our Founding Fathers were the type who sacrificed to root King George's Tories out of power. Those Tories were in the South, too.
Today's slavers are bipartisan according to Victor Davis Hanson. They're landed, propertied, and they own the multinational factories and agribusinesses that have driven our small town farmers off their land for the last 100 years. They're the socialist elites in universities and city councils across the land. They're the environmentalist whackos and pseudo-scientists claiming America's economy should be linked to UN. They're the grade school teachers who are teaching that culture is irrelevant and America should give way to every savage creed that we can bring in from Asia, Africa, and the mideast.
In other words, there are a lot of lies being passed off as anti-slavery today that are anything but. If only we just had the Cary School to deal with! This one isn't sponsored by our tax dollars. I'm worried about the ones who are!
We can learn at least three things about our erroneous and deadly experimentation with slavery. First, the Founding Fathers weren't 100% correct on everything. Second, we have to think for ourselves. They didn't establish everything as it should be, and we are expected to rise to each challenge history brings us on our own. Finally, when they come for your community's guns, don't count on the ensuing civil war being a short and painless one.
As Bill Cosby and Star Parker have shown us, it looks like we have plenty descendants of former slaves who are up to the occasion when all too many whites aren't.
I'm not sure that this material is appropriate for K-12 levels, but it is a private school At what grade level would you deem it appropriate to expose students to the viewpoints and perspectives of mid-ninteenth century southern United States as it regarded the institution of slavery?
Or for that matter at what grade level should students at a private Christian school begin to read and understand the Epistle to the Collosians?
