I was held out of Catholic school at age 6 because the nuns couldn't SEE my smallpox vaccination. I think you have every right to with hold a portion of your state taxes that go for education if your child is being denied one. You should indeed fight it AND make it public. My son was expelled form school for one year for lighting a firecracker in the lunchroom. Incredibly stupid, I know. Some kids handed him one and said "here, light this" And he did and threw it on the floor and immediately stepped on it. They, who brought firecrackers to school, got two weeks suspension. My son was expelled for one year, meaning 365 days. This was in January. He couldn't go back in sept. Now he's saying he wants to quit and just get his GED. And I don't really blame him. No child left behind?? Safety needs to be tempered with common sense.
