I grew up in a relatively small town. This town, full of the conservative religious right is getting a smack on the wrist (finally) from the US Constitution.
SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE
This science teacher has been keeping Bibles and religious propraganda allover his classroom. This would be acceptable if he taught in one of the local PRIVATE Christian schools. This man teaches at the only public middle school in town. He teaches about 100 students a day. After 20 years of teaching he just cant keep up with the Constitution. Good thing he's not a Government Teacher!!
The students rallied behind him! They made support t-shirts, brought bibles to school and even joined a protest on the town square! What freaks me out, I went to the school in question at one time. And yes, he did currently teach there. The student body 10 or so years ago didnt give a rats butt about the teachers and what went on in their lives. I'm sure my student body would have said 'hell yeah one less teacher' or something to that effect. Pre-teens coming out in force supporting a teacher? Unheard of in small town Ohio in the 90's. Boy have things changed.

indescribable
