And then on the other hand it is perfectly alright to brain wash these same little skulls full of mush with global warming paranoia, go figure. I think there are still many people who can remember the terror of the coming ice age back in the 70's. Well if we did such a good job stopping that disaster, then maybe we should cut things back a notch or two so we have a perfect balance.

Public schools should teach the 3-R's, once they get that down then they can go to the "fancy" stuff.

I’ve seen a potential pitfall to private sector investment in schools.
Video Journalists probed into an oklahoma elementary school that was being funded by the regional oil tycoons. 
The curriculum was highly suspect.  Course modules like “fun with fracking!” and “how the environment benefits from fossil fuels” with adorable greasy roughneck driller mascots and altrusitic dinosaurs sharing this information in ways that children can absorb, then repeat (repeat & repeat).
It’s not exactly the kind of education I’d want for my progeny.  I place academic objectivity at a high priority.  Such bias exhibited by the oil and gas funded elementary makes me want to puke.

I should have added, these are publicly funded Charter Schools. I agree that using private funding leads to all kinds of problems as you described.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Or transgender sensitivity, and gender fluidity as a social science  ::) I'll take Oil funded for $500, Alek

That’s a bit cynical ya’ll.

Atmospheric science can still be taught without agenda.  Thinks like, “what sphere do commercial airplanes fly in?”  “Which part of the atmosphere does the Aurora occur in, and why?”  These are foundational theories of planetary ecology! 
Which I wouldn’t expect the average grade schooler to know off hand right now.  But they might understand some complex maths.  Ironic. 

When it comes to pollution, the chemistry can be objectively accurate too.  I mean, we go round and round about air/fuel mixtures here.  Dynotuning sensors can measure unburnt combustibles quite simply.  Yet we don’t debate the fact that what comes out the tail pipe is real and carries a consequence to air quality.  Or the effect that breathing too much of it has on respiratory health.

But since adults are so sensitive over these topics, they don’t teach these things to our youth.  Opting instead for 10 weeks of repeating quadratic equations.
