How do we address concern of parents that their children are not learning Microsoft technologies?

As for the opinion of parents', we feel it is a matter of rising above the marketing frenzy and addressing their concerns with informational and awareness driving sessions. These links listed below should provide enough supporting material to school administrators and teachers -
  1. Won't the students be deprived if not taught on Microsoft Windows or MS Office?
  2. Does Microsoft support open source software and Linux?
And yes, it has never been about teaching tools at schools. Instead, it is all about fundamental concepts and they are platform agnostic. So a student who undergoes learning on the open source platform can actually adapt to and adopt any tool in the future. Who knows about what the future holds for them? More about all this is elaborated in our article related to open source in education.

Do feel free to reach out to us if there are any further concerns after reading the above.
