Kids can be a lot smarter than you think, and the smarter ones can be very attuned to politics. There was a 13 year old in one school district who proved their school superintendant a liar when the kid recorded a teacher in the system, blatantly pushig CRT after the superintentandt claimed there was no CRT in their system. We have a 14 year old in our family who complained last year of two teachers in a school in a nearby county who were constantly pushing left wing politics in class. Of course, the complaints were just to family members, but many kids are perceptive to this politicized material in class.

There was a 14 or 15 year old girl who was a student in the Beaufort County Early College program who spoke to the Beaufort County Conservative Club a year or two ago about how she was being taught CRT there even though the school officials claimed it was not being taught in the county schools. She also said that there was radical gender theory being espoused there. I later heard that this same girl dropped out of school and got a GED due to all the left wing political mess being pushed at the Early College program. The Early College program is run by Beaufort County Schools.

What conservative opinion are they afford to mention? Please share an example.

Kids in my family are afraid to mention any conservative opinion in school because they are afraid that will be used against them. This is not an atmosphere we should have in our schools. Some teachers are too obvous in their liberal political opinions, and there is too often a question mark in kids minds about the others. No teacher who may have conservative opinions seems to want those known in the system.

What they are being given in schools is the "woke" version of everything, very one sided, not too different from education in the old Soviet Union with Marxism crap like CRT, DEI, and ESG. Of course, that is what you on the far left want.

Sorry but the truth isn't the fairytale some of us, including me, we taught back in school. Students should definitely get more than one perspective.

Propaganda can hurt our whole society, and too much of that, of the "woke" variety is in our schools.

Just an observation. And accurate to boot.

As usual, Big Government Bob, you confuse the far left political narrative with the truth, when in fact, nothing could be farther from the truth.

This is exactly why parents can no longer trust teachers in our school system. Yes, there are some who are great teachers who do good work in educating students and keep politics out of the classroom. But there are others who are themselves indoctrinated in these leftwing college education classes or through the far left NCAE teachers union. Unless you know all teachers involved personally, there is no way to tell which group they fall into. That is why parents and citizens simply have to have oversight about what is going on in our schools and why we need a school board that will be vigilent in overseeing any recommendation brought to them and do their own research.
There is even a grant program at NC State University to turn out politicized "progressive" teachers to indoctrinate students in those political beliefs here in eastern North Carolina. To know that radical teachers are already here, one only has to look at the national list of teachers who declared they will still teach the Marxist CRT even if school policy says not to do so, and the number of teachers in eastern North Carolina actively proclaiming that. One has to wonder how many more do exactly that but just don't openly declare it. If we cannot depoliticize our public schools, it may soon be time to look for alternatives, and the NC legislature is on the cusp of giving parents the ability to have vouchers to use to educate their children elsewhere.
