If they are not going to teach, but indoctrinate, there is a problem.

Public school through Masters +.
Taught in public schools. Only in public schools.
Sent kids to public schools.

Ok.

Yes. When I taught, we did not indoctrinate. We worked very hard to keep our politics private.

Current teachers aren’t doing the same? Do you have examples? How old are your children?

Example 2: "Woke Kindergarten" https://nypost.com/2021/08/06/virginia-school-accused-of-indoctrinating-kids-with-woke-kindergarten-video/

You know every time you type “woke,” you out yourself as an imbecile, right?

And yes, the person who wrote that insipid garbage in the New York Post (LOL) is an imbecile too.

Why do rightwingers get flak for talking about "woke" when it was a term invented and championed by the left (and still used as a badge of honor in many circles)? I'm neither right nor left, in fact I am not political at all, just curious because it really makes no sense to me why one group can't piss on a term that another group champions

Maybe because they try to portray being “woke” as a negative thing?

It has religious overtones, like something from Amazing Grace ("I once was blind, but now I see"), which in turn was taken from the Bible. It never should have made its way into the general lexicon.

If the left wing can piss on "MAGA" then the right wing can piss on "woke."

In any case, the current School Board has quite a few members who excel at performative acts of allyship, while failing when it comes to real acts that might enhance student opportunities or performance.

So this thread went from: perhaps there are some mainstream republicans running for school board that don’t support vouchers to “woke us wrong MAGA” in just a few steps.
I think OP you have your answer.
