Can Students Opt Out of Studying about Islam?

Does studying about another religion contradict your own faith?

That’s what one Atlanta parent thinks. He told Fox News that “my daughter learning the Islamic faith kinda contradicts my faith in general.”

He also complained about his 6th grade daughter’s homework assignment about Islam, arguing that the class spent more time learning about Islam than about Christianity.

According to this story from Fox News in Atlanta, the principal agreed to let the parent’s child opt out of the lesson.
