I don’t have (or plan to have) kids, but I’m happy to pay the local taxes (and vote ‘yes’ on the various levies) that fund the schools because I don’t want a bunch of stupid adults later. But shoving religion in makes me want to start looking for some kind of opt-out loophole. I definitely don’t want my tax money going toward religious indoctrination.
Ah, your state probably does taxes differently or you’re technically in a school district just not in town. There’s school district black holes in my area, but they’re usually pretty far out there.
Goddamnit.

move to an unincorporated area. You would have to pay out of district fees if you had kids.
My area is unincorported (just outside of city limits). A portion of my property taxes go toward the schools.
