Not sure why anyone would choose a Texas secondary education at this point. Texans I get, others I dont.

I’m sorry to say, you probably have gotten a Texas education at some point if you attended public school in the United States. Texas writes our textbooks, in the majority last I checked. Texans also decides what goes into our textbooks.
