May 17, 2016: The Portland Public Schools board unanimously approved a resolution ordering every school in Portland to “abandon the use of any adopted text material that is found to express doubt about the severity of the climate crisis or its root in human activities.”
The resolution also directs the superintendent and staff to develop an implementation plan for “curriculum and educational opportunities that address climate change and climate justice in all Portland Public Schools.”
One commenter to the Portland Tribune story said, “I have never seen a case for homeschooling more clearly put forward. This is further proof that public schools are not interested in education, only political indoctrination.”

Pretty good case for not having public schools at all! Geez!

I am 100% in favor of each school aged child receiving his or her exactly fair share of education tax dollars to use as his/her parents or guardians think best. Good schools will flourish. Home schoolers won’t have to make such huge sacrifices. And the disparity in pay between private and public teachers will go away.

They can’t manage to teach children to read, write, spell, or do basic arithmetic, but they sure as hell can teach them to worry about polar bears drowning.
