MN school district: Politically incorrect pro-life club need not apply, but environmental club OK District claims club ‘does not support student body as a whole’ but approves other non-curricular student groups
MINNEAPOLIS — Alliance Defense Fund attorneys filed a lawsuit Thursday on behalf of a student-led pro-life club against Independent School District #885 for denying the club, at St. Michael-Albertville High School, official status because it allegedly “does not support the student body as a whole.” Despite that claim, school officials have recognized more than a dozen other non-curricular clubs, including the Environmental and Animé clubs, providing them with benefits and access currently denied to the pro-life student group, known as the All Life Is Valuable (ALIV) Club. Case Name: ALIV Club v. Independent School District #885 Full news release, quotes, and related media resources available at the following link: http://www.adfmedia.org/News/PRDetail/4715 ADF is a legal alliance of Christian attorneys and like-minded organizations defending the right of people to freely live out their faith.
