We don't know if the school crossed the line or not. The linked article is very editorialized.




I believe it is an editorial. But if these things are true....

quote:

According to copies of classroom assignments, the school taught that “Most Muslims’ faith is stronger than the average Christian.”


quote:

“During its brief instruction on Christianity, Defendants failed to cover any portion of the Bible or other non-Islamic religious texts, such as the Ten Commandments,” the lawsuit states. “Instead, the class included disparaging remarks about Christianity and the Pope.”


Then the school has crossed the line from teaching about Christianity and Islam from a historic standpoint and instead are promoting one over the other. That's a textbook violation of the Constitution.

That is almost certainly true, FWIW.
