Don’t fall into the trap of thinking Republicans are doing dumb things with education policy because they don’t understand it, or are stupid, or some such.
This is a coordinated strategy. They planned this. They know exactly what they are doing: protecting and elevating the aristocracy by wrecking the social mobility provided by public education.
@alexwild also, school board elections are thinly promoted, you're likely to only care about school policy if you have school age children, especially if you DON'T have time to spare to run for election, others with political ambitions, will. Especially if they are being quietly subsidized to run via dark money.
As you can tell by recent school policy and book-bashing activity in the news, it's been very effective.
