Tomorrow is bring your bible to school day.
Bring Your Bible to School Day is an annual religious-freedom event for students. Students from kindergarten through college can participate.
Students nationwide lead the effort at their respective schools. It’s voluntary and student-led, meaning it’s up to students to lead Bring Your Bible to School Day activities.
The goal is to equip and inspire Christian students to be modern-day Daniels and Esthers, to be voices of hope, understand their religious freedoms and express their biblical beliefs in a loving, Christ-centered way.
Bring your Bible to school.org suggests parents talk to school officials in advance and let them know if your child plans to take part. You can explain that your child is participating in a religious-freedom event and that they are planning to do so in a respectful and peaceful manner and in a way that does not disturb instruction time.
If school officials have questions, you can provide them with the legal memo that online. Some schools offer outlets (often via email or social-networking forums) for parents to share or submit announcements about events in which their children are participating. If you have the opportunity to share information in that type of forum, there is a downloadable parent-oriented announcement at Bring Your Bible to school.org that may help.
Bring your bible to school is a great way to Celebrate God’s faithfulness with your children and remind them they are not alone!
