School bans Christmas,
but OK with Halloween

San Diego mother who has been told by school officials she can no longer read a Christmas story to her daughter's class, despite having the green light in recent years
 

For the past several years with the consent of the Del Mar Union School District, Reynolds has been going into one of her four children's classes to read and discuss how her family celebrates Christmas at home. She brings a Nativity scene, and sometimes a children's Bible or storybook to aid in discussing family traditions

"You can't allow discussions of certain holidays and ban discussion of others," says Gary Kreep, executive director of the United States Justice Foundation, a conservative legal-action foundation which is reviewing this case. "It's a violation not only of California law, but also the U.S. Constitution."
