Grandaughter was asked religious questions in a questionnaire at school.
Advertisements [?]
She's a 6th grader in a public school in Nashville, TN. She told me the teacher gave the class a questionnaire of about 60 questions. Many questions were to rate her in various ways. But she was also asked if she wanted to be like Jesus. She told me that after watching Passion of the Christ she said answered no because she didn't want to die like that. She was also asked if she loved God, if she believed that her teacher loved God, and one other question about Jesus. There were about 4 or 5 questions in all relating to God and Jesus.

She said it made her real uncomfortable and she wasn't sure how to answer it. No names were put on the questionnaires. I felt it went beyond inappropriate. I had already been uncomfortable with this teacher for connecting God and Bush to the class in the class before the election. I'm not sure how to procede with this. I'm in charge of the children since my son has custody and I take care of them. What would you do?
