Evolution = Existing life changes and adapts
Therefore, Creationism is required before Evolution. Creationism is the spark, Evolution is the fire caused by the spark.
It depends on who is teaching these subjects. Evolution is true in nature over time, but as you say it does not threaten creation. A week or two of discussion on the subject in this era, however, and we know what the outcome will be. Public schools use to be quite Christian and trusted, but now indoctrination is wide open and in your face. Parents are too pooped to do a damn thing about it and that silence has our candidates sounding crickets on the issue also.
