In Ohio's Public School system, Evolution is taught in all science classes. "Creationism" is generally reserved for either private study, or a Religion Class. The State of Ohio does not have a law requiring this, but it is an understanding that a debate on creationism does not belong in a Science classroom, but rather a Theology classroom.
