Schools and teachers should be meant to educate, and help students grow as independent and thinking people.
The school should be a place for teaching facts. It should also present ideas, and teach students to come to conclusions via logical reasoning.
Bias, unprofessionalism, slant, and personal opinion being taught as fact have no place in any school system worth a damn.
Most schools, however, do have more influence from the left.
I just figure this teacher is another loud mouthed lefty. Although, I had a problem with one of my right leaning history books for being obviously slanted as well.
I can't remember what I voted, but I don't think it's normal that this bitter man is shoehorning politics into a lesson about environmental science.
It's out of place, and as you said, inappropriate.
A Right-Leaning History Book? Most Textbooks are made in Texas (which Liberals often say to try to "Disprove" the assertions of Left-Wing bias prevalent on TextBooks), yet the info that is dictated into them is presided by a Committee of California-Based Left Wingers.
I would be quite surprised to find an actual "Right-Wing" Book that wasn't created by a Religious based Organization for use in a Parochial school.

Who published this "Right-Wing Biased" textbook?

The publisher was probably Alpha Omega, or Abeka. Yes, it was a textbook from a Christian perspective.
I'm a Christian, but I still didn't care for the way they presented a lot of stuff.
I could tell pieces of the picture were missing, as they say, "History is written by the victors."
Every time I read it, it seemed that an agenda was being pushed on me.
America could do no wrong.
