My husband has two friends who are public school teachers. While they talked about ways they would like to see things change, they also said they would not be sending their children -- or future children for one -- to public school. One said she was sending her children to private school. The other said his children would be homeschooled.
While at a teaching supply store I overhead a teacher talking to her colleague. She said she was teaching her students about Famous Americans this year, not the "politically correct crap" that the district wanted her to. She went through state requirements and showed her bosses that she was not supposed to be teaching World History or Studies in the grade she was teaching.

"teaching....Famous Americans this year, not the "politically correct crap"

I know several who do that. LOL

It's unfortunate that a teacher would have to send their own child to a non-public school, but who would know better than they where the good schools are?

A lot of politicians do likewise. When Bush tries to offer vouchers so that all students and parents would have a choice, those same politicians are against it!
