Knowledge is what science is about and schools are where we convey knowledge. Evolution encompasses all of the knowledge we have on the adaptation and mutation of species. It is not something that we think occurs but rather that which we know occurs. We know for a fact that evolution occurs and that is knowledge that needs to be shared. That is what schools are for.
