THEY FINALLY LISTENED AND REVERSED THE POLICY!! WE STOPPED THE DISTRIBUTION IN SCHOOLS AND SECURED A MASSIVE WIN FOR SECULAR EDUCATION!! STAY VIGILANT BUT FOR TODAY WE CELEBRATE THIS HUGE SUCCESS!!
To: Kathleen Woodcock (Chair, Waterloo Region District School Board)
We the undersigned request that the Waterloo Region District School Board immediately reverse the recent decision to allow The Gideons of Canada to distribute bibles in our Public Schools.
The public school system is not the place for learning "knowledge of religious feeling" as Trustee Colin Harrington is quoted as saying. **
WE JUST SMASHED THROUGH 100 SIGNATURES!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE AND SHOWS THAT OUR COMMUNITY DEMANDS SECULAR SCHOOLS NOW!!
Reached 100 supporters

Schools are for learning not for handing out books of faith. It makes a lot of families uncomfortable.

Public schools should be neutral. My kids are there for math and science not to be preached at. Keep religion at home where it belongs.
