...outsiders are trying to tell a PA community what they can teach in their schools? The school board is elected BY THE PEOPLE.

They are not. If the School Board want to include ID (or astrology or voodoo for that matter) in the curriculum, that is fine. Just don't usurp accepted and valid science with confusing and contradictory dogma in the same class.

The fact that they are elected does not absolve them of their responsibilities to the the students to prepare them for the world, away from Dover. That is done by deferring to experts in the chosen field to set that curriculum. Failure to do so fails the students.
