School Expels Girl for Having Wrong Parents
You'd think this would stir up some outrage?
ONTARIO, Calif. - A 14-year-old student was expelled from a Christian school because her parents are black, the school's superintendent said in a letter.
Shay Clark was expelled from Ontario Christian School on Thursday.
"Your family does not meet the policies of admission," Superintendent Leonard Stob wrote to Tina Clark, the girl's biological mother.
Stob wrote that school policy requires that at least one parent may not engage in practices "immoral or inconsistent with a positive Christian life style, such as being a descendant of Ham, whose dark skin identified him as accursed of God," The Los Angeles Times reported in Friday's edition.
Stob could not be reached for comment by the newspaper. Shay and her parents said they won't fight the ruling.
School administrators learned of the parents' race this week after Shay was reprimanded for talking to the crowd during a football game, Tina Clark said.
Clark and her partner have been together 22 years and have two other daughters, ages 9 and 19.
Now let's see if what actually happened is seen as the same kind of bigoted hatred, or just "religious freedom."
