Cy-Fair ISD is the district adjacent to where I live. It is one of the most prosperous and smartest districts in the state (and 4th largest overall). For the moment anyway.
The Christian Taliban has made a coup on the School Board of Trustees. First the Trustees gave themselves the power to edit anything already approved by the ultraconservative Texas Board of Education (!!!). They were unable to get their preferred textbook about dinosaurs co-existing peacefully with man approved, so they decided to disallow any teaching of various commonly accepted era (Jurassic era for one....so dinosaurs never existed now insofar as public schools are concerned).
Ice age? Never happened.
Vaccines? They don't exist and never have.
Biological reproductive systems? Not in OUR school systems.
The trustees have NO power to mandate what is taught, so they've flipped the script and declared they have ABSOLUTE power over what IS taught, and they're flexing.
