From the article: Teachers reported that there were no problems in class after the statements were read and the entire process was uneventful.

Not particularly surprising. After all, the entirety of ID as a discipline was exhausted after the reading of the four paragraphs, so there wasn't much to get excited about.

(personally, I think ID is a conspiracy amongst school administrators who would really rather play golf than spend time organizing an actual science curriculum)

"After all, the entirety of ID as a discipline was exhausted after the reading of the four paragraphs..."

The kids aren't dumb either. They were all well aware that they were being compelled against their will to hear this statement. They are all aware of the controversy and likely all saw it as a political fight that they were caught up in. Rest assured that none of the kids had their minds changed either way because of the statement.

I thought the teachers prepared the curriculum and the administrators administered the paddle. At least that was my experience as a student. Let me take this opportunity to thank the teachers. They have my support (even the liberal whack jobs) if they care about the students and teach with empathy.
