Parents Sue School District for “Promoting Islam” by Implementing Pro-Muslim Lessons

Parents are ultimately responsible for the education of their children and when the school district which has been given stewardship in this endeavor fails at this responsibility, then certainly the parents must step in.

Charles County Public Schools in Maryland is facing a lawsuit for failing at its educational responsibility to the Wood’s family. “The lawsuit further alleges that while Christianity was given only one day in the course, the class dedicated two full weeks to Islam.”

The lawsuit alleges that Charles County Public Schools “concealed that their high school World History class promoted Islam” by failing to mention the Islam lesson in a course syllabus and through the use of a separate textbook, kept on school grounds, which “extensively covered Islam.”

The Wood’s daughter, who is referred to as C.W. in the suit because she is a minor, was allegedly removed from the course and issued failing grades on her assignments because she “refused to deny and insult her Christian beliefs” by participating in activities that she believed affirmed that Muslims hold stronger faith convictions than Christians.

The lawsuit also states that Charles County Public Schools’ “curriculum practices, policies, actions, procedures, and customs promote the Islamic faith by requiring students to profess the five pillars of Islam and to write out faith statements of the religion.”

It claims the school spent only one day teaching Christianity, while devoting two weeks to the lesson on Islam.

“Defendants forced Wood’s daughter to disparage her Christian faith by reciting the Shahada, and acknowledging Mohammed as her spiritual leader,” President and Chief Counsel of the Thomas More Law Center Richard Thompson said in a press release.

This will most certainly not be the last story like this, as school districts across this country have similar lesson plans and forthright parents who oppose such indoctrination.
