Muslims Force Christian High School To Allot Class Time For Muslim Prayer According to recent reports, 10 Muslim students at Parkdale High School are now being permitted to leave class for eight minutes each day to pray together on campus. According to Principal Cheryl J. Logan, the plan gives students with parental permission and high grades time to practice Islamic prayer. The students are part of the Muslim students association. Logan claims that when the Muslim students first started praying, it upset some of the Christian teachers who felt that it was inappropriate for a Christian school to facilitate such time. Ive been real happy with how weve been able to deal with it without it becoming an issue, Logan concluded. Still, some states have passed laws that require schools to simply treat everyone the same way and not give exemptions or special accommodations for religious reasons. The schools new policy would seem to ignore those laws. What do you think of the new policy?
