I wanted to equip all of you and your parents with resources to help you when people at school try and tell you that you can't pray in school, that you can't start a Bible club and the other illegal things that people try and say. They aren't allowed to stop you from being a Christian. As long as you aren't distracting the teacher during class you are allowed to talk about your faith openly.

If you are interested in starting a Bible study at your middle school then please contact Andy Deane. I would be happy to walk you through the process of starting a club. I can come to your school to help teach the club weekly if the opportunity is available. 

Have your parents print these booklets as a guide:

• Student Rights Booklet (ADF)
• Student Rights Booklet (ACLJ)
• A "See You At The Pole" letter

If you have been treated unfairly because of your belief in Jesus then please let me know and we will get you some free advice from a lawyer as to what your rights are and how to proceed if needed.
