[quote=Anonymous]It’s very obvious to me why Deal has chosen a church, a mosque and a synagogue. Christianity is the largest religion in the USA, and hatred and bigotry towards Jews and Muslim is the most prevalent form of religious hatred and bigotry in the US. It makes all the sense in the world for the schools to educate students on all three, because education is the cure for bigotry. I would be stunned if the teachers weren’t making any effort to explain in advance of the visits to the girls in the class why they would need to wear head coverings. If, after hearing that, a girl still wishes to go on the field trip, then great. If not, then she can tell her parents she wants to opt out. I can guarantee you that my head strong 10 year old would let me know her preference and I would accommodate it. But it would be her decision, not mine. No one is trying to indoctrinate OP’s kid. The aim is to educate and stimulate discussion. [/quote]
