Parent claim that subliminal Islamic messaging, in the form of a geography lesson, took place at Riverheads High School in Augusta County, Virginia this week. The students were given what the district described as an art project, an assignment to write, “There is no god but Allah. Muhammad is the messenger of Allah” in Arabic calligraphy.
Girls in the class were invited to dress in the Muslim style as well.
Parents were, of course, outraged at the assignment and on December 11th, met with the school district. The district saw no issue in the World Geography lesson saying, “There was no (sic) attempt at indoctrination to Islam or any other religion, or a request for students to renounce their own faith or profess any belief.”
Yet this statement is suspect, as there could have been so many other statements to practice artistic Arabic calligraphy and the educators specifically chose the shahada, the Muslim statement of faith.

When did these people think this was okay???
I am a christain…but I believe nothing like this or any religion should be used in a public school…..who is to say which verses or whatever will be used?? There are many different religions sitting side by side in that classroom…
bs
I’ll wear their pajama outfits when they pay for them!!!
I guess Freedom from Religion in school only pertains to Christianity.
They believe once you do this you are ‘converted’.
Well, why not? If their parents aren’t American enough or patriotic enough to stand up and say NO Hell No. Well, not on my watch will my grands or anyone else I know do such c**p. This is America. I guarantee the muslim students would not wear our clothes or write, there is no one else but God. That Jesus is the Savior. WAKE UP AMERICA. THE STORM IS HERE.
I know I’m new at this but I think I did pretty good!
That’s bull
If you child is in a school where this takes place , move them or home school them
