Descriptions of civic life and some key historical events differ from the way they are taught in typical public school textbooks.
Even their intro sounds fucking weaselly, like they know they're being slimy and deceitful.
Why would you phrase it like that? "...Differ from the way they are taught in typical public school textbooks" says absolutely nothing about the truthfulness or lack thereof of the statements in question, or the textbooks. It's the basest appeal to authority, and a really bad one at that since, at least to me, it just further calls the authority in to question.
They actually give the game away in the headline itself. Their problem is the JROTC offering an "Alternative View of the World." That right there is the one thing the totalitarians can't tolerate.

"Conservative schools treat children differently from the way typical public schools do. They're not being groomed."
