Because it is implemented state by state. The basics of the 3Rs are universal, and not state determined. The Federal government should be overseeing the public education curriculum, not the individual states. Those who whine about liberal indoctrination are just pissed because THEY wanted to be doing the indoctrinating.

In reality, schools aren't interested in liberal or conservative indoctrination, they want to teach Critical Thinking Skills. That should be a bipartisan position, but conservatives have come to despise Critical Thinking Skills because it turns out that CTS are the best defense to the Conservative Propaganda Machine.
