The issue here is that the school is teaching not general knowledge, but knowledge that is only useful in the Amazon context. It's a "company town" mentality.

It's a "company town" mentality. Amazon needs the workers, so it makes sure that the workers need it.
That's completely different to EU/Government funding. That's a debate between two levels of government about who gets the political benefit of the funding. However, by definition, publicly funded facilities are examples of "Your taxes at work".

They might add some extra stuff to spend that (whopping) $50k from Amazon, but it seems hard to believe that the state will allow a high school to just ditch the education code requirements. Especially a public school.
