"Supreme Court To Decide If Atheism Keeps Its Monopoly On K-12 Schools...until Supreme Court and legislative changes in the mid-1900s, U.S. public schools were usually overtly Christian: "In the 1800s, the country was predominantly Protestant, and public schools taught a generic Protestantism. Teachers led students in daily prayer, sang religious hymns, extolled Protestant ideals, read from the King James Bible, and taught from anti-Catholic textbooks."
THIS BLOG began simply with photos of some of the schools I taught at in los angeles as a substitute teacher & prior to that at coachella high as a regular English teacher, and shows the student portfolios completed by the kids at the end of one year. I will also be posting links to current education stories here.
