Schools across America have been pressured to offer time off school, in-school prayer rooms, and special dietary demands to Muslim students observing Islamic rites.
Many Muslim associations in the U.S. and some with connections to foreign Islamic organizations have been agitating for special privileges in U.S. schools for Muslim beliefs.
Special accommodations for Islam in U.S. public schools is a trend that is gaining steam. And it’s happening at the same time schools are eliminating Christian holidays or changing them to generic time off.
