You must be kidding. Public school is a system of indoctination, beginning with core knowledge and extenting to social issues.

One of my kids used to practice basketball at a PS , while there I looked at the bulletin boards, there were pictures of teachers with "I love democrats", 'Democrats are great' t- shirts on. No propaganda there.
