  • Abstract
    The article reviews culture in the U.S.A public school curriculum. We mainly discuss the role of religion in elementary education. We draw out some implications: given our frameworks, given the major issues, given the different points of view, when and how should the curriculum or particular courses incorporate the study of religion.
