KATY (Covering Katy) – A straight-A seventh grade Katy Independent School District student says she and her classmates were instructed that God is not real, and those who disagreed had their grades docked. According to the child, the examination on the existence of God was administered Monday, Oct. 26, 2015, in a West Memorial Junior High School reading class.
“We were asked to take a poll to say whether God was fact, opinion or a myth, and she (the teacher) told anyone who said God was a fact or an opinion that they were wrong,” said seventh grade student Jordan Wolley.
Jordan Wooley took her concerns to the Katy ISD school board on Monday night. At the Monday night meeting she said, “Today I was given an assignment in school that questioned my faith and told me that God was not real.”
“Another child had asked the teacher if we could try to put what we believe on the paper, and she (the teacher) said you can if you want to get it wrong,” Wooley said.
Wooley says her class was not the only group that received the lesson that God is not real. She says the same teacher taught several other classes on Monday which included the same instructions about God.
