The Republican-controlled board voted Friday to adopt the curriculum changes, which are scheduled to take effect in 2030. The new requirements establish mandatory reading lists for K-12 English and literature classes and require students to read selected works “in their entirety.” The lists include traditional literary works alongside biblical stories and passages.

    I had to send my son to a parochial elementary and middle school because I wouldn’t send a dog to the public schools in our city, and I couldn’t afford Montessori. I was afraid they’d convert him.

    Instead he’s a bigger atheist than me!

      That’s what’s hilarious, they don’t realize it’s forcing it on the kids that increases the risk they’ll grow to loathe it or see it as a means of manipulating others.
