Christmas break came early for the students in the Staunton, Virgina school district when their classes were canceled due to the controversy surrounding the Islamic calligraphy lessons given to the ninth grade World Geography class. As reported by Truth and Action, the “district closed schools the Friday before Christmas holiday as the media covered the complaints regarding the assignment, resulting in an onslaught of phone calls and emails. An increased police presence was felt necessary, as well as the closure, as some of the tweets and emails raised concern.”
More has been uncovered since the original story about the forced writing of the shahada-the Islamic statement of faith took place.
Not only were the students forced to practice Islamic calligraphy, that said, “There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah”, but the Koran was circulated and girls were forced to put on a hijab and photographed for the yearbook, as well. One student in particular refused the headdress but ultimately felt forced to comply.
The teacher, Cheryl LaPorte, and the district seem to have no qualms regarding the one-sided exercise in religion and claim it lines up with state standards.
No where in the lesson were other religions, that are part of the Arab culture, brought in; nor did LaPorte pass around a Bible or Torah as a comparative pieces of literature.
The Virginia Department of Education curriculum framework for the World Geography lessons demonstrate that LaPorte’s Islamic indoctrination is not compliant with state standards.
Read about the standards on page two and evaluate for oneself LaPorte’s subversive intentions.

I surly hope no one falls for your scam. You are a low life piece of pig s**t.
Stephanie Mckelva Rodie it is. Thats what they want a One World Religion.
She needs to be FIRED… this is totally unacceptable…
Should Not happen in the US!
Fire her now
I see no problem with a child who wants to pray, they don’t have to be ridiculed. This is why there are Christian schools and Catholics schools, etc. But when teachers and schools start forcing a cult upon our children, it’s time to put a foot down. I am not atheist, but it should not be taught in public schools. As I said if a child wants to pray…he can do so, you can pray silently, God hears!
Fire her!
Whatever happened to our freedom of religion
Bitch slap some of these idiots and the rest will stop
The koran has NO BUSINESS anywhere in this country. It teaches hate and violence towards non-believers.
