You didn't ask me, but I feel like answering....
Sure. As long they devote equal time to all the 'major' religions and not just the religions where Jesus died for my sins.

I learned quite a bit about world religions in high school through various social studies and history classes. Not a lot, but quite a bit and always respectfully taught. Maybe my high school was the exception to the rule or maybe we just weren't progressive enough. After all, I was only taught 'evolution' in science class and we all know how today that's considered 'just a theory.'
