Given that the federal Constitution says nothing about public schools, the 10th A. automatically reserves all government power to regulate public schools to the states.
The first step to remedying the problem of unconstitutional federal government interference in public schools, in my opinion, is to get everybody up to speed with unique state powers to regulate public education.
The next step to remedying the problem of federal government interference in public schools is for the federal government to immediately stop giving taxpayer's dollars to public schools - and appropriately lower federal taxes. Getting federal fingers out of our wallets will help communities to build the kind of public schools that they want.
Finally, arguably the important consideration concerning unwanted federal government influence in public schools is to allow God back into the classrooms. The truth of the matter is that people don't understand that the USSC's so-called separation of church and state is nothing more than an example of corrupt justices successfully legislating special-interest agendas from the bench.
More specifically, contrary to the politically correct belief that Founders forbade government power to regulate religion to both the federal and state governments, the truth of the matter is that the Founding States had actually reserved government power to regulate religion to the states, as evidenced by the 10th A., regardless that they prohibited such power entirely to the federal government. But I'll also note that the 10th A. protected power of the states to regulate religion is now limited by the honest interpretation, as opposed to the USSC's interpretation, of Sec. 1 of the 14th Amendment.
So the states have the constitutional power (10th A.) to authorize public schools to lead non-mandatory (14th A.) classroom discussions on the pros and cons of evolution, creationism and irreducible complexity, as examples, regardless that atheists, separatists, secular judges and the liberal media are wrongly misleading the people to think that doing such things in public schools is unconstitutional.
As a side note to inviting God back into the public schools, it should be up to the taxpayers of a given community to decide what religious instruction, if any, that they are willing to pay for in their local public schools.
Finally, the series of posts at the following link, although not directly addessing public schools, should help people get up to speed as to how we got ourselves into the public school mess that we've got today.
