If there is any kind of a lack of conservative voice in education it is the conservatives fault for by and large not being interested in eductating our youth.
AHEM!

Excuse me, but teachers are NOT necessarily allowed to teach "thier values".

There are guidelines of teaching ethics, and if pushing your own politics isn't one of them in his school district, it certainly should be.

I know my own instructors are VERY careful about distinguishing their personal views and what they can teach, and I appreciate that.

I want a teacher who presents information so I can make up my own mind, not one who is interested in making me part of their personal "constituency".
