Yes. Private schools teach all kinds of wacky propaganda. That's why I'm against school vouchers from tax money.

Most private schools I've seen are "faith-based." After speaking to other parents with kids in the schools I learned the faith part is often limited to some brief prayer time or a cross or two on the walls. I imagine this has to do more with tax status than faith or wacky propaganda.

That indeed is the threshold for an advanced society.

Laws for the liberal education of youth, especially for the lower classes of people, are so extremely wise and useful that to a humane and generous mind, no expense for this purpose would be thought extravagant.
