What would be an example of the conservatives ideal private K-12 school ? |
|
A school that is overtly fundamentalist Christian (most likely Protestant) anti-gay sexist classist all white and none of them teachers unions (all teachers are un-unionized with no job security ad no due process).
Actual examples (naming names) would be helpful.
I'd just like to see what an example of their ideal school looks like.

1. Take Bob Jones U (please) and back it down a few grade levels. |
|
That's my take, anyway.

2. I don't know if this fits all your criteria but it's the first example that came to mind |

3. Read Oliver Twist: A Work House from the 1840s mixed with a 1930s Southern "Reformatory". |

Notionally Protestant with mandatory chapel expensive/requires uniforms these days considered a rich white kids school/whiter than the population base no unions

5. Perfect schools to further goals of the cons? |
|
Perhaps a school system that does not teach children to think critically. And if they can somehow get these schools to cause 30% to 50% of the students to drop out before graduating, the conserv-o-nuts would find that to be ideal.
