Is there a standard that you want the schools to uphold when it comes to teaching our children. If so, what is that standard and how should it be determined?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is impossible to “determine” without crushing the freedom of conscience and First Amendment Rights of our citizens.

Please read post #20 and #22. These posts explain why this is so.

The only possible solution that respects our First Amendment Rights, an inalienable right bequeath by God ( or part of the human condition, if one is atheist), is to have complete separation of SCHOOL and state!

The solution is to move to a completely private system of K-12 education.

However...It does seem that those who support evolution are the biggest defenders of compulsory attendance, compulsory funded, police enforce, government owned and run, K-12 schools. ( Gee! I wonder why that is?)

I think you are right.

My observation has been that the vast majority of people support compulsory public education.
