Science Teachers? What science teachers?. The kid in question was in Kindergarten.

But no, these kids (when they hit high school) have to write the same diploma exams as everyone else, so no creationism.

I did some student teaching in a Catholic high school, and noticed that by the time the kids got to high school, the whole religion aspect was pretty much a joke and that the kids themselves could be more rebellious than their public equivalents.
