[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is NOT ok.  Not because of the sign itself - a few years back, that would have just been an odd place to reference a dollar bill.  In the current circumstances it is a dog whistle to Christian nationalism and everything that entails.

I find it extremely offensive.  I would avoid that school.  I would definitely complain.[/quote]

Why is this not allowed when FCPS officially celebrates Diwali, Eid, etc making all students take the day off or learn nothing? That's ok but a reference to God on a paper is Christian nationalism?[/quote]

Do we have politicians forcing schools to put up Muslim, Hindu, Jewish signs?

Muslims and Jews are both Abrahamic religions though.  It's my understanding that there is a Supreme God in Hinduisml, though there a multitude of Gods as well.

Again, you can read "In God we trust" however you want, and adherents to different traditions may read their own God(s) into it. [/quote]
