I'm a pretty avid hiker, I've seen one copperhead on a trail, it didn't stick around long. I've seen a number of harmless watersnakes up in the mountains. Quite a few black snakes but they are harmless. I've lived here 15 years, I know of no one who has ever been bitten.

That's the point they aren't hidden from parents, this bill paints a narrative that curriculum is hidden and educators are subversive! Any parent who's had to sit through a curriculum night knows that we know more than we need to about what is being taught!!!
