It will be held on school grounds, but attendance is optional and it will be outside, before the school day begins. My problem with it is the school-wide PA announcement and the flyers taped up on school property. I think it goes without saying that, if my kid wanted the same access to resources for the advertisement and conduct of a non-Christian belief meeting on school grounds, he would be turned down.

I can't push this issue because my husband is a district employee and, given certain health problems, we can't even remotely consider risking the loss of his job and benefits. But I am disturbed by the situation and wonder what y'all think.

And, please, if you want to argue about religion, don't do it here. Start a different thread.
