Public schools do not teach Ebonics, no. The educational shift right now, however, is to recognize it as its own English dialect, which is a good starting point. Unfortunately, American society is constructed to equate standard (read: proper) English with success, so it's important for educators to help students fluent in US Ebonics code-switch to find success in expressing themselves in professional or academic settings. This is not to say that the vernacular used outside of these circles is wrong - that would be like saying that native speakers of French are wrong for speaking it in the home or in their communities. It has recently been suggested, in fact, that speakers of US Ebonics may be considered under ESL/LEP status. For many, the paradigm shift from "improper English" to "dialect" helps combat linguistic prejudice.

Why is religion not involved in schools?
religion is a central part of many schools, both in the US and across the world. In the US, there are catholic schools and thousands of other faith-based schools. These schools are considered private schools, in the sense that they do not receive public funds. You must pay to attend these schools. they teach normal classes, but in addition, they also teach religion. Public funded schools are strictly forbiden from teaching religion, due to separation of state and church. If the public schools were to teach any religion, that could indicate a government preference for one religion over another, which is undesirable. Government and religion are treated separate, in order to acheive freedom of religion. State sponsored religion should be avoided, because it causes problems, such as civil war and oppression of other religions.
