  Case: I Love Jesus
For three consecutive Fridays, a public school first grade teacher has worn a tee-shirt that states in bold letters "I Love Jesus." When the school principal asks the teacher to not wear religious inscriptions on her apparel again, the teacher states that just because she is entering a school as an employee, her civil rights cannot be stripped away. She threatens a suit against the principal. Does the principal or teacher have legal grounds for his/her assertions?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)

I also agree that unless the class shares scholarly information about all different religions such as a World Religions class, Christianity should not be taught or encouraged in public schools. The teacher cannot be wearing this shirt no matter her freedom of speech.
