Oklahoma Public Schools: Bibles, not Competence

While Oklahoma fights to put Bibles in all of its classrooms, it's worth noting that almost every quality assessment ranking that one can find puts Oklahoma public schools at or near the bottom. They are worse than the states that traditionally had the worst schools in the country: Alabama and Mississippi.

One has to wonder why the state school administrators are engaging in culture wars instead of doing the hard work of ensuring that their charges receive a quality education.

But we know the answer to that. Engaging in culture wars impresses the mouthbreathing anacephanic MAGAs. Giving their kids a quality education might mean teaching them to think and evaluate on their own, rather than accept the intellectual bilge being shoveled out by their parents and pastors. And we simply can't have that, can we.
