SCIENCE – Curriculum lacks both depth of content and instruction in the critical skills needed to be a scientist. They rely heavily on concepts like renewable resources, nuclear power or biodiversity which are examples of emotional and political hot-buttons of the moment, but are not the basis for a foundation in solid science knowledge. Very experienced Orange County, CA high school science teacher

HISTORY – As dictated by the new AP framework, students will be taught that much of their country’s history was warped by racism and cultural chauvinism. American founders are reduced to a minor role, if mentioned at all.    Frontline Ministries, Inc.
