That's terrible

Yeah, Keets, it would help if you explained the context of this excerpt.

Good grief, really?

That’s everywhere! I told my kids to homeschool or send them to private school! If you think that’s bad, see what they teach in college!

What a crying shame... unreal stuff

What state? What school? What class? Is there any proof that this is even real? Looks like fake news meant to stir the crap.

And who shows up to support this crap!?

I’m not sure what all the concern is about. These statements are from news articles I read every day in local and national newspapers. Without understanding the context of the question, the part we’re not seeing is more important than what Keets is showing us.

Talk about stirring the pot. Do you know how to read? All your questions are answered earlier in this post!

If this was not fake news, we'd get to see the rest of the page and know more about the context.

I think grackel is happy they want to turn american children in to liberal retards.

Why matt? For my questioning of what is almost certainly boooogus bs.
If the parenting is so poor that said parent must worry that little Johnny or Janie are going to brainwashed by a school that the kid is exposed to for so little time compared to the time the kid should spend with the family, they have failed miserably.
These same "concerned" parents probably let the kid spend hours on the internet and playing violent video games.

We should be told what happened when these questions were brought to the attention of the school board.

There is something about the Original post that should raise questions for anyone who does not automatically buy into whatever he is shown by folks he believes are like minded.

Considering we're trappings and strong 2A supporters that questions seems very important.

Face it...we're a small minority that is constantly facing the tyranny of the majority.

Most of you are clueless when it comes to what's happened to public school curriculum "these days."

You should see what's happened to most history courses.

Don't have to see much...history majors in top schools these days don't even have to take a class in US history! It's an elective.

Well, grekkle....I can assure you that is real homework,screenshotted off a school laptop, and that crap us there on a daily basis...your comments are idiotic

Show us the rest of the page.

When I get time I (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) will

I overheard some parents this weekend talking that their kids have to take a band class. I don't understand how this helps out in real.

Most good public schools have the middle school kids take a half semester or so of the elective classes they will be offered at the high school level. They usually include courses like Music(vocal and band), art. a hands on tech ed(shop class) and at least one other STEM class, Family and consumer science(kinda like home economics from the old days). The classes serve an an introduction to some options that a kid may not otherwise be exposed to. That is a good thing.

One thing this does is get some of the brighter kids to think about taking classes that prepare them for going into the trades. It's a lot harder to get a bright kids parents to believe going into a trade is sometimes a better option than college for the kid.
It also gives the kid a chance to see that he may have some talent in one of the fine arts.
