As reported by the Chattanoogan online newspaper, a local high school student will be allowed to wear her Islamic head scarf to school, depsite previous objections related to the dress code. While there doesn't seem to have been any controversy stirred up by the decision, it is worth stating that this was absolutely the right decision to make. By allowing the student to wear the head scarf, the school district was not establishing in any way the religious beliefs adhered to by the student -- they were simply not restricting her free exercise of those beliefs. That's all the constitution calls for, after all. As a Christian, especially in a time when there is a growing anti-Christian sentiment within the culture, it makes me happy to see a government agency getting it right, even if the beneficiary is of another faith.
