Thanks to the concerted efforts of some of the community, some so-called science teachers, and religious fanatics, all of whom are against science, both the high school and junior high school in Big Spring, Texas have been rated academically unacceptable by the Texas Education Agency.
Um...where in the stories you linked to do you find the justification for this? Yes, the second one mentioned the science scores, but how does this translate to teachers being "against science"?
There are plenty of reasons why the school may have failed the science exam without the kids being taught something other than science. They simply may have been taught poorly.

Thank you for your submission to
Science. Your paper was reviewed by a jury of seventh graders so that they could look for balance and to allow them to make up their own minds. We are sorry to say that they found your paper "bogus," specifically describing the section on the laboratory work "boring." We regret that we will be unable to publish your work at this time.
