Students Wear Islam Dress For Class UPDATED: 3:08 pm EDT October 3, 2006 local6.com NYSSA, Ore. -- Officials at a public school in Oregon are defending a seventh-grade social studies unit on Islam that included students dressing in traditional Islamic dress. Kendlee Garner of Nyssa told the Ontario Argus Observer that she objected to the amount of time dedicated to the unit on Islam -- four weeks -- as well as the wearing of religious garb and the lack of parental notification. She said her son told her about the activity, and when she objected, he got an alternate assignment in the library. Nyssa school officials respond that teaching about Islam is not promoting the religion. Superintendent Don Grotting said it's part of meeting state standards that call for students to "understand the importance of the rise of Islam and its interaction with Europe." ******************************* It was only a matter of time before this nonsense started.
