I disagree with you on this.

Your own school system (Montgomery County MD) has one of the more liberal curriculum available in this country. If you want your child steeped in liberal mumbo jumbo (as opposed to fact-based education) and homosexuality is normal education, by all means send them to public school there.

In my experience, many of the successful doctor/lawyer/CEO parents are too busy with their own work and social life to pay attention to such things as the specific curriculum used in the classroom. They're more concerned about the social opportunities available to the kids. Additionally, the IB curriculum pushed as the highest standard in this country is filled with pseudo-science and socialist agendas, courtesy of its sponsor, the U.N.

Good luck with all that. Just ask yourself one question - why do so many wealthy families vote democrat/socialist ? It all goes back to the curriculum.

I actually live in DC, so the school district here is even worse than pretty much any other you can think of, but change seems to be in the air.

The proof is in the pudding. Look at the rate of college attendance for kids in Montgomery County and get back to me on whether or not that school district is failing its students.

That part of the curriculum wouldn't bother me.

Sure. They, like me, are more concerned about their kids getting into a good university and being successful in life. If the school system is doing that, a little silliness involving a cucumber and condoms is really just a side issue.

Depends on where you are. Around here, many of the wealthy families have a financial stake in maintaining the socialism in America.
