They teach that the earth goes around the sun, rather than the sun going around the earth, the order of the planets, and move on to the next topic.

And why doesn't that bother people as much as schools teaching that the world's species descended from common ancestors over geological ages, showing how the species are interrelated, and moving on to the next topic?

We can observe the planetary motion - we cannot observe species descending from common ancestor because it is a theory that can never be observed or proved unless Mr. Peabody prefects the Way-Back machine.

They go considerably beyond that re evolution -- but you'll have to ask those people you're referring to about things that bother them and why.
