I'm in LA - mod Dem - my child goes to public Charter Jr High - it's gone full looney left - race is at the center of Everything/ at the expense of basic academics ("Math is White Supremacy, Homework is racist, etc") - my kid has begun to think racism is just a joke (which is not a great lesson!) - and we are running to private school for high school. Im no RWinger - we are fine w/ kids learning/ discussing 1619 Project and our kids just re-read Maus -- but there is some ridiculous stuff happening on the far left that Dems need to address/ runaway from. Our younger kid's elementary school has not succumb to the crazy - but then again, that school is majority Asian families/ Asian principal. They are progressive/ inclusive, but not at the expense of math/ science/ reading comprehension.
Serious question. Are you afraid to address your SPECIFIC concerns to your school, school district administration and school board? Are you afraid of being called out as a racist? I know it is hard and takes time but until parents start saying something the insanity won't stop. I don't mean that you need to become confrontational like the Trump inspired parents in Florida who just love to disrupt because they can. But to respectfully appeal to their professional position as guarantors of your children's education and your expectation that they are doing the best for your children.
And some private schools are just as crazy these days.
