If you have kids in public school classrooms, you need to get them into another educational setting. If private school is not affordable, figure out a way to educate them at home, either independantly or with other home schoolers. There are vast and varied resources for homeschooling now, much of it free on the net. Many public school districts also offer online classes, not a great solution, but at least a parent has more control.
In addition to all of their other problems, public schools are becoming indoctrination facilities. Some would say that this has been the whole purpose of schools anyway; the difference is that in the past, the indoctrination was to promote a society reflective of western values and American patriotism. There is an agenda now to undermine both of those ideologies, to “fundamentally change America.”
Districts are bribed with federal money and then must pay the piper by following directives like the transgender bathroom policy.
Teachers are often blamed for what is taught. Teachers nowadays are controlled in ways they never have been. If they get caught veering from the standards they will be dealt with.
