I'm not sure about this. They gave low scores for New Hampshire, and I know for
a fact that the evolution teaching here is pretty good. I think the reason they
gave NH low scores is because the state does not specifically require evolution
be taught, but then, there are no state mandated curricula for any subject
whatsoever, they just accept independent accreditation.
