There are plenty of reasons to avoid public schools. Dennis Prager names the most obvious, as well as one that has come to light only recently.

To start with the obvious,

Once infected with leftism, these schools teach children to hate reason, tradition, America, Christianity, whites, excellence, freedom and masculinity.

At this point, it is safe to assume that any public school is infected by leftism. Such a school will not only turn your children against you (assuming you hold traditional values), it will deprive them of an education, because people who consider it racist to insist there is “one right answer” in math are not capable of teaching effectively.

Like other bastions of leftism (e.g., the Democratic Party), teachers’ unions have gone overboard exploiting the ChiCom virus. This has exposed the mentality of many of the teachers they represent, providing another strong reason to not to subject children to their schools:

Teachers’ unwillingness to show up in class for more than a year is as unscientific as it is unprecedented. On Feb. 3, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky told reporters during a White House news briefing that teachers do not need to get vaccinated against COVID-19 before schools can safely reopen: “There is increasing data to suggest that schools can safely reopen and that safe reopening does not suggest that teachers need to be vaccinated. Vaccinations of teachers is not a prerequisite for safely reopening schools.”

Nevertheless, in the country’s major cities, these cowards and hypochondriacs — people who claim to care more than anything else about their students — have refused to return to school (while demanding to be paid). They have refused to teach, despite the facts that child-to-teacher transmission of the COVID-19 virus is extremely rare and a teacher being hospitalized, let alone dying, as a result of interaction with students is rarer than a teacher dying in a traffic accident on the way to school. Why, then, would you send your child to be “taught” by people for whom you have — or should have — so little respect?

As teachers rarely hesitate to remind us, educating children is a crucial task. It is not sensible to entrust crucial tasks to people who lack the motivation to show up for work.

Public education smothers a child’s potential. Fortunately, home schooling is still legal for now.
