People tend to take their children's education pretty seriously, and yes, they are worried that other people will have that much influence on their children. And "Hey, those people believe in something we don't, and you don't have to either..." will simply not cut it. Kids go to school for seven hours a day, five days a week -- the stink 'll settle in. And besides, ain't it kind of counterproductive to send your kid to school all day and then say "What they believe and talk about every day is all wrong"?
Re: all the scoffing at "political correctness" in general in this thread -- I guaran-goddamn-tee it that if this was a government-sponsored "Mohammad centered learning environment", we wouldn't be hearing about political correctness. The same people saying this is "political correctness" right now would be outraged.
