Teachers do have some leeway in how they teach a subject, as long as they cover specific topics. I mean, we know that 6th graders will do a unit on Egypt, why not help them learn to do some kind of research on it? And what about High School? Isn't that supposed to be prepping them for college? Part of college is doing research, if we give them a leg up, they'll be ahead of some of their peers.
