Articles about how religion is treated in two schools in Virginia:
A Virginia school district didn’t violate a teacher’s free-speech rights by removing [religion]-themed postings from his classroom walls, a federal judge has ruled.
In her ruling filed last week, U.S. District Judge Rebecca Beach Smith said William Lee’s posters at Tabb High School were part of his instructional tools and school curriculum and were subject to school review.
During the next few weeks, [individual's name] will bring third-, fourth- and fifth-grade students from a [religious] academy in Herndon, Va., to nearby public schools to share the practices and beliefs [of that religion].
[Individual's name] and the children will present the [specific religious practices of their faith]. In countless other classrooms across the country, similar efforts will be made to educate students about the time of fasting and spiritual reflection for adherents of [that faith].
Anybody care to guess what religion is referenced in each article?
