Well, in my neck of the woods, many school districts no longer teach history or geography. The claim is there isn't enough money, so they have to cut the curticulum. But these districts always seem to have enough money for courses like African American Heritage, foreign culture (teaching Islam) and of course, sports.
And for those who do attend history classes -- they aren't taught history. They are indoctrinated. I remember being taught years ago that FDR was a hero because he brought this country out of the Depression. In reality, he prolonged the Great Depression. The kids are taught hero worship -- only those heroes approved by their teachers and the school administration. President Reagan wouldn't qualify. I suspect the same would occur at college level.
I've met people from other countries who know more about this nation's history than the people who live here. That doesn't bode well for this country in relation to the rest of the world.
