Parents who plan to or have homeschooled their kids would not be welcome in the public schools. Heck, they’d never be allowed to graduate from college with a teaching degree.

Control of the public schools began with seizing control of the university education departments. (Take a look at the courses offered by your local college of education.)

I have looked at education courses, and homeschooling parents could become teachers. So long as they don't use their class time in college to argue politics with closed-minded professors, there is no barrier to decent people becoming teachers. There are many conservative teachers already; just not enough. We can change that if we try instead of giving up.

This statement is false. One of my coworkers has home-schooled all four of his children, and he has been promoted to Assistant Principal at one of the local high schools and is being fast tracked to Principal.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Progressives have **always** controlled teacher training and curriculum development. Progressives have **always** pushed the envelop just far enough so that the voters didn't rebel. That's how we got to where we are today.

Remember please: Government owned and run K-12 schooling ( AKA: a socialist-funded, compulsory-use, and single-payer entitlement) was a progressive idea from the very beginning in the mid-1800s to early 1900s.

Socialist-funded, compulsory, and single-payer K-12 school is corrupt because its socialist foundation is rotten and always has been from the beginning.
