Greetings! ,
Religious freedom in your local school is only possible when the community is armed with knowledgeable, passionate advocates who are well-equipped to defend the separation of church and state.
Today is the last day you can register for our inaugural Citizens' Religious Freedom Institute, a one day seminar on religion in public schools.
What: Citizens' Religious Freedom Institute
When: Saturday, April 17, 2010*
Where: University of Colorado at Colorado Springs
Who: For teachers, students, parents, administrators, staff, school board members, and open to the public, the Institute will include a graduate credit track for teachers, pending approval.
Why: Religious freedom starts with you! At this event, you'll learn:
-
How the law defines religious freedom in the public school setting
-
Best practices for teaching about religion without endorsing it
-
How to be an advocate to ensure your school protects your rights
Please join us to explore topics such as prayer in school, evolution and creationism/intelligent design, equal access, student religious expression, music at school functions, and more.
Sincerely,
Barb Van Hoy
Executive Director
