I don’t doubt it. My elementary education out in East Bumfuck, New Hampshire in the late 80s/early 90s wasn’t exactly top notch. My third grade teacher taught us that the appendix was located in the leg and banned certain books and items from the classroom for being “satanic”.
Rural areas of New England are pretty ass-backwards. If you want a decent education, you basically need to live in the Boston Metro area or the seacoast.
I was taught the metric system in American elementary school.

Funny, by stereotype the North is supposed to be ahead of the South, yet I got a decent education in North Carolina in the 90’s and early 00’s.
