Creationism doesn't get a say in Science class. It's science class.
And lets be honest here: When people talk about teaching intelligent design, or creator origin, or whatever, it exclusively focuses on the Abrahamic idea of the matter, paying no mind to the Dharmic or Taoic ideas on the origin. So not only is it completely out of place, but it's also grossly incomplete, biased, and serves no purpose other than the reinforce our society's dominant religious cultures, rather than to give students a better understanding of the world around them.

We're just less aggressive about it than the catholic church has been during rougher times (e.g. inquisition, crusades).
