Public Education History and Godless Worldview

There are a lot of people proclaiming public schools as harmful – bastions of evil, intent on ruining innocent minds and brainwashing hearts. A lot of it can seem like just plain noise, but how much of it is true? What is truly going on in public schools? Is there actually anything going on, or are people just crying wolf?

During the Village Church of Barrington’s seminar “Parenting in a Godless Culture: Educating Parents and Grandparents,” church elder David Cartwright answers this question by tracing the history of public schools from their classical Christian parent or church-led roots to the progressive humanistic socialist worldview of government schools.  Cartwright goes through some of the curriculum being taught, as well as the LGBTQIA+ push going on behind closed doors.
