Knaves: Jeanetta Rainey, a vice principal in Prince George's County who needs to go back to school. Here's a good rule of thumb for school administrators: If you think a student is somehow violating the sacred separation of church and state doctrine, don't do anything. Otherwise, you'll just end up looking foolish. So it was with Ms. Rainey, who admonished a 12-year-old girl at Dwight D. Eisenhower Middle School in Laurel last month for reading the Bible during her free time. According to a lawsuit filed by Amber Mangum's mother, the vice principal told Amber that reading the Bible violated school policy. It's anyone's guess what Ms. Rainey was thinking. The school's administrative procedures clearly state that students "may read their Bibles or other scriptures." The ACLU, of course, and other virtuous civil-liberties organizations are no where to be found. That probably wouldn't be the case if young Amber had been reading the Koran — but then neither would Ms. Rainey likely have said a word. For finding religious violations in all the wrong places, Vice Principal Rainey is the Knave of the week.
