California School District Backed In Offering Bible As Literature and History Course

One News Now reports that church members, students, parents and residents from the surrounding cities packed the room in which the board of the Chino Valley Unified School District met last Thursday to support the decision the Board reached last month (One News Now, 7/5) to offer an elective  course in Bible as/in Literature and History in district high schools. The class is authorized in all four of the district's high schools and funds have been donated to cover the cost of the course. School board Vice President James Na at Thursday's meeting said: "[The Bible] will bring greatness in students' lives. I would like to thank God and Christian parents who are going to support this class." A few parents at Thursday's meeting argued that the class was unconstitutional, but board member Na said they misunderstand the class. It will not indoctrinate their children.
