Private schools are just that: privately funded. I used to attend a private “Christian school” and they were very open about what they would / wouldn’t be teaching there.
Taking money from public funds and use it to encourage religious teaching is wrong. Especially when their morals include “x people are less than/must submit to y people” and “people who do [fill in the blank] are sinning against God and their actions are unambiguously wrong”.
It’s a slippery slope, especially because my family went down a path of “physical and mental illness is a result of your sins and spiritual shortcomings.” I personally know of at least 3 pastors (whose church I used to attend) who have a child who eventually committed suicide. They do not see a connection.
What about private schools?

It’s evil.
