[quote=Anonymous]As PP's have said, VA history is important to VA. And Virginia's role from an historic perspective pretty much is diminished after the civil war. I wish they would put more emphasis on civil rights, but while VA had issues, most of the action was further south. So, it is appropriate to have the kids learn about pre-revolution, founding fathers, and civil war. Not much happened in VA during WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, etc. By comparison, VA is why we have the bill of rights. 4 of the first 5 presidents were from VA. And VA was the front for much of the civil war. Proud Parent of child at the Vienna School for the Colored.[/quote]
