36. Central PA--my son did not attend "bible release" time during school day
They had Bible Release Classes on Friday afternoons. My son and one other did not attend. The teacher gave them dictionary work, or they could read. They were not ostracized. The classes were held on a school bus in the parking lot. The attendees were given Popsicles, or other treats.

I couldn't believe this was going on. But this is the Bible Belt, Franklin County PA. The first PTA meeting we attended opened with a prayer, and the program was a movie about how Jesus could prevent your child from taking drugs. We walked out.
