To: Pflugerville High School
Religious Freedom For All Religions
Support Religious Freedom of all faiths. We must stand together as a community to show we will not allow discrimination against any Religious choice we and our family take.
Why is this important?
Pflugerville High School is denying one of our beloved Pagan community members her right to take her son out of school for a religious holy day. Samhain is a pagan holiday which is equivalent to New Year's. Texas Board of Education has stated under code 25.087 that a school shall give an excused absence for a religious holy day, including the day of as well as a day prior and after for travel. This goes for any religion whether it be Christian, Jewish, Buddhism or Paganism and all that fall in between. They are denying a member of our community their rights. We need to stand together and show them that we are here, not going anywhere and we deserve the same Religious consideration as Christians do. Please take the time to sign this Petition and show your support for all Religious Freedom for all faiths and beliefs.
