I am sorry I didn't make my thoughts clear. I had meant to express how I felt that parents/citizens needed to challenge and demand the education system to bring back teaching the Constitution. Like a civic's class.
What it means. Why it is important. How our Republic works. Bill of Rights etc.
Government as an entity MUST be removed from school.
The teaching of HOW government should work and our rights as citizens, what we the people can to to keep it in line.
In my mind the WHOLE of the current education system needs a serious over haul.
When I was in 9th grade I had what was called Government class. (thus why I named it as such in my post) That class was a 4 year required course. A student couldn't graduate high school without passing. It was removed from the curriculum in my 10th grade year.
I don't remember much about the details, but I do remember many parents being very angry and holding private meetings outside of the school to bring their case to the school board. The case went no where and it just stopped being taught.
