Much like in Florida, the fight over public education in Texas has become a lighting rod in the country’s culture wars. Seventh-grade social studies teachers, who teach a full year of Texas state history, are required to describe the defenders of the Alamo in a “heroic” light. I attended Robert E.

In 2016, the school, which my niece now attends, was renamed Russell Lee Elementary.
