Gracious! There should alternate, religion-free schools if the public schools won't follow the law. Or there's home schooling, which is what I did.

In my case my kids were too dyslexic and high IQ to send to public school, as they were reading at two, doing algebra at five, and reading encyclopedias at four. They could speed read through books as fast as they could flip the pages, yet remember every word.

Scary. They checked out 200 books every two weeks at the country library, so I had to bring a laundry basket with handles, and they'd each read five books on the way home in the car.

When I had a divorce and sent them to public school at middle school age, they thought school was joke. The teachers realized the kids knew more than they did and were sort of afraid of asking them a question in class, as they'd be floored with a stream of info the teachers didn't previously know.

So they just allowed my kids to bring books like the Iliad to school, and read to themselves during class.
