The article reflects on a personal journey of disillusionment within a conservative evangelical high school system, contrasting past experiences with current trends in American education. The author notes the resurgence of Christian nationalism, particularly under Donald Trump's influence, which aims to integrate evangelical perspectives into public schooling. This movement threatens to undermine secular educational norms by redefining curricula to include Christian ideologies and using public funds to support religious schools through vouchers, raising significant constitutional concerns.
"The push comes in two forms: injecting more Christian rhetoric and rituals into public school curriculum and for the first time in history, using tax dollars to subsidize private religious schools, generally via vouchers."
