Better yet, look into homeschooling or a homeschool cooperative. A boycott of Scholastic is a great start for those who can't homeschool or afford a non-woke, private, education-centered solution to the awful Groomer-centric public schools.
Free curricula are available and if you stick with the classics, you can get most of them very cheap at used bookstores, library sales and Project Gutenberg or free e-books for those out of copyright.
Newberry award winners from at least a decade or two ago and father back are excellent.
Totally agree. I homeschooled my kids with a Classical education in the 1990s. They both tested well and received a full and partial scholarship to college. Public school was poor back then, but not nearly as bad as it is now. I feel for parents who believe they have no other options due to economics or fear of guiding their kids education. Seriously, as for the latter most parents would do a far better job of teaching and finding online curricula for their kids than the current crop of woke Groomers that pass for public school teachers these days.
Absolutely! We try to be super encouraging, but it takes a lot to overcome the programming that has the normies relying on "experts." One family at a time!

Truth to that!
